Even though people rave about my baking, I'm no pro so I decided to check out a recipe then put my own twist on it. Google, is the best....search anything and you'll get exactly what you want....and easy recipes are the best. So this is what Google came up with for me courtesy of Simply Recipes:
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup butter, room temperature
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1 egg
- 1 1/4 cup flour
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions
1 Beat the butter until creamy for about 2 minutes. Add the sugars and beat for 2 more minutes. Mix in the peanut butter and egg. Then mix together the dry ingredients. Stir the dry ingredients into the sugar butter mixture.
2 Wrap dough in plastic and refrigerate at least 3 hours or I just put the bowl in the freezer while the oven preheated and in between batches. Works just the same ;)
3 Preheat oven to 375°F. Shape dough into 1 1/4 inch balls. Place about 3 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten in crisscross pattern with a fork. Bake until light brown, 9 to 10 minutes. Cool on baking sheets for a minute; transfer to rack to cool completely.
For chewier cookies, bake at 300°F for 15 minutes.
