Ingredients
 

  • 1½ cups All-purpose flour, Spooned and levelled
  • ½ teaspoon Baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Salt
  • ½ cup Butter, Room-temperature
  • ⅓ cup Granulated sugar
  • ½ cup Brown sugar, Packed
  • 1 Egg, Room-temperature
  • 2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup Peanut butter, Creamy

For Rolling

  • ½ cup Granulated sugar

Instructions
 

  • Like any other cookie-making process, use the paddle attachment to cream the room-temperature butter with both sugars. The key to a perfect cookie texture is this step. The creamier the mixture, the better cookies you will have. This step may take up to 3-4 minutes.
    ½ cup Butter, ⅓ cup Granulated sugar, ½ cup Brown sugar
  • Add in the egg and vanilla extract and mix well. Scrape the bowl as needed to make sure all ingredients are well incorporated.
    1 Egg, 2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • Add the peanut butter and mix.
    ¾ cup Peanut butter
  • Sift all dry ingredients and add them to the butter mixture. Gently mix the dough, and do not overmix. Cover the dough and chill it for 1-2 hours.
    1½ cups All-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon Baking soda, ¼ teaspoon Baking Powder, ¼ teaspoon Salt
  • Preheat the oven to 350F and make small dough balls, almost 30 grams each. Roll them in the granulated sugar. Use a fork with long prongs and gently press the fork on the cookie balls to create the cris cross pattern.
    ½ cup Granulated sugar
  • Place the Peanut Butter Cookie balls on the lined baking sheets and leave 2-inch space between them. Bake for 9-11 minutes or until they turn slightly golden. Let them cool down on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer them to the cooling rack to cool down completely.
