Ingredients
- 1 cup butter room temperature
- 1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter
- 1 1/4 cups dark brown sugar packed
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- additional granulated sugar for fork
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- Add the butter and peanut butter to a large mixing bowl. Using a hand mixer, beat on medium speed until creamed.
- Add in the brown sugar and granulated sugar. Mix until incorporated.
- Add in the eggs and vanilla extract. Beat until the eggs are worked into the cookie dough.
- Add in the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Beat until the flour is incorporated.
- Using a 1 1/2 tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop the dough into your hand and roll it into a ball.
- Place 2 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheet. I did 4 rows of 3 cookie balls.
- Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of additional granulated sugar to a small shallow bowl.
- Dip a fork in the sugar and press the dough ball down with the fork to about 5/8th inch thickness (between 3/4 to 1/2 inch thick). Turn the fork and gently add a second set of marks in the opposite direction.
- Place in the preheated oven and bake for 12 to 14 minutes until the edges begin to turn golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack or paper towel to cool completely.
- Place the cooled cookies in an airtight container and store at room temperature.
Notes
- Storage: Store these cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for 4 to 5 days.
- Freeze: Freeze these cookies in a freezer-safe container or freezer bag for up to 3 months.
- Thaw: Place on the counter and let the cookies come up to room temperature.
