These Cake Mix Peanut Butter Cookies are my go-to when I want something sweet, cozy, and ridiculously easy. They come together in one bowl with pantry staples, no chill time, and that classic crisscross top that feels like my childhood. Soft, chewy, and ready in minutes. This is comfort baking at its most effortless.
