Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter softened
  • 1 cup crunchy peanut butter
  • 1.5 cups brown sugar packed
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1.5 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 0.5 tsp salt

Method

  1. Beat the butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and crunchy peanut butter together until smooth and creamy.
  2. Beat in the eggs until fully incorporated.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Stir the dry ingredients into the butter mixture until the dough is just combined.
  5. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
  6. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  7. Roll the chilled dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spaced about 2 inches apart.
  8. Dip a fork lightly in flour and press a cross-hatch pattern into each cookie to flatten slightly.
  9. Bake the cookies for 7–10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  10. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy.
