Crispy, chewy, and irresistibly good, traditional peanut butter cookies never go out of style. With their iconic crisscross pattern, these classic cookies were a childhood favourite for many and still are. Made with both white and brown sugar, peanut butter, flour, unsalted butter and eggs, they are the perfect balance of sweet and salty with a wonderfully soft, melt in your mouth texture. This cookie is a classic for a reason!
Classic Peanut Butter Cookies
Makes 7 dozen
1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup peanut butter, crunchy or smooth
1 cup white sugar
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
Cream the butter, peanut butter, and sugars together in a bowl, then beat in the eggs. In a separate bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, then stir into butter mixture. Put the dough in refrigerator for 1 hour. Once chilled. roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place on a baking sheet. Flatten each ball with a fork, making a crisscross pattern. Bake in a preheated 375°F oven for about 10 minutes or until cookies begin to brown. Using a spatula, remove the cookies from the baking sheet and let cool on a wire rack.
