add egg, milk and vanilla; beat well. stir together flour, baking soda and salt; gradually beat into peanut butter mixture.

shape dough into 1-inch balls. roll in granulated sugar; place on ungreased cookie sheet.

bake 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly browned. remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. cool completely.
