We’ve taken this classic cookie and added a little crunch to make it our new favorite way to make peanut butter cookies!
INGREDIENTS
1 cup (250g) creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup (125g) peanut butter chunks
1/2 cup (1 stick, 113g) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
1/2 cup (100g) packed brown sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/4 cup (160g) all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1/3 cup granulated sugar to roll cookies in
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190 degrees C).
In a large bowl, smear peanut butter, butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar until well blended.
Beat the egg and vanilla. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; mix with the cream
mixture.
Put the dough in the balls. (I used a 3 tablespoon spoon). Roll each ball of dough in granulated sugar.
Place the cookies 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
Press each ball once with a fork of interlocking spikes.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in preheated oven, or until edges are lightly browned. Do not over-bake!
