Classic Peanut Butter Cookies

 Nothing new about these cookies - tried and true peanut butter cookies.

This recipe from Cooking Classy might become your favorite version of this cookie. It is mine!



Ingredients


1 1/3 cup all purpose flour

3/4 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar

3/4 cup creamy peanut butter

1 large egg

1 1/2 tsp vanilla



Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

With electric mixer, butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar. Mix in peanut butter and egg and vanilla. Mix until combined. Add dry ingredients and mix until just combined.

Scoop dough and shape into balls (about 1 Tablespoon). Place on prepared cookie sheet.

Using a fork, flatten the each cookie ball slightly and then turn the fork and press again in the opposite direction, creating a criss-cross pattern.

Bake for about 9 minutes. Cookies should appear slightly under baked. Remove from oven and allow to sit on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes. Then, remove to wire rack to cool completely. Store in air tight container.
