Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup crunchy peanut butter
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons baking soda

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2

Beat butter, peanut butter, white sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth; beat in eggs.

Step 3

Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt into a separate bowl; stir into butter mixture until dough is just combined. Chill cookie dough in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

Step 4

Roll dough into 1-inch balls and place 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Flatten each ball with a fork, making a crisscross pattern.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, about 10 minutes. Cool on the baking sheets briefly before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
