Soft & Chewy Peanut Butter Cookies
Soft, chewy, and loaded with peanut butter flavor, these are the best peanut butter cookies we've ever tried!
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter or margarine
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
Instructions
- Cream butter, peanut butter, and sugars in a large bowl till creamy. Beat in eggs.
- Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl and stir into the wet ingredients just till combined.
- Roll dough into balls and place on silicone lined or lightly greased cookie sheets. Flatten with a fork.
- Bake at 375° for about 10 minutes.
- Let sit on pans for 3-5 minutes, then remove to wire racks to cool.
Notes
If using crunchy peanut butter, I like to overfill the measuring cup a bit. Since the peanuts replace some of the peanut butter, I find that it helps keep the cookies moist.
