Ingredients

The following ingredients have 24 Servings
  • 1/2 Cup Butter (softened)
  • 3/4 Cup Brown Sugar
  • 1/4 Cup White Sugar
  • 1 Cup Peanut Butter
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 3/4 Teaspoon Vanilla
  • 1 Tablespoon Milk
  • 1 3/4 Cups All Purpose Flour (make sure you [measure in this way])
  • 1/4 Teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1/2 Teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/2 Cup Sugar (for rolling)

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line 2 baking sheets with parchment or silpat liners.
  • In the bowl of a standing mixer, mix the butter and sugars for 1 minute on medium speed, increase to medium high for an additional 30 seconds.
  • Add the peanut butter and mix another 30 seconds.
  • This allows the sugars and butter to beat against the bowl, incorporating more air for a lighter, fluffier cookie.
  • Add the egg, vanilla and milk and mix until smooth.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, salt, powder and soda.
  • Add to the wet ingredients and mix until smooth.
  • Roll the peanut butter dough into balls and roll in the sugar.
  • Use a fork to gently press into the dough and then lift and repeat going the opposite direction.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes.
