Equipment
- 4 Sheet pans
Ingredients
- 1 cup Butter (softented)
- 1 cup White sugar
- 1 cup Brown sugar
- 2 Egg
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1½ cup Peanut butter (creamy)
- 3 cups All Purpose flour
- 1½ tsp Baking soda
- 1 tsp Baking powder
- 1/2 tsp Sea Salt
Instructions
- Using the paddle attachment on the stand mixer, beat the butter, sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the egg, vanilla, and peanut butter and mix to combine the ingredients.
- Measure all the dry ingredients into the mixer bowl and slowly stir the ingredients until all the flour is mixed into the dough.
- Remove the mixer bowl, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375℉.
- Remove dough from the refrigerator. Using your hands, roll dough into approximately 1½ tablespoon balls. Place 12 balls on a sheet pan and make a crisscross pattern on the top of each dough ball by lightly pressing the ball with the prongs of a fork.
- Return the dough to the refrigerator between batches. In a standard sized home oven, 2 pans can be baked at a time.
- Bake for 10 minutes.
- After 10 minutes, remove the pan from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheet pan for 5 minutes before transferring the cookies to the cooling rack to further cool down.
- Continue steps 6-9 for the remaining cookies.
- Cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
