Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Preheat Oven:

    • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
    • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • Mix Wet Ingredients:

    • In a large bowl, beat butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
    • Add eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.

  • Combine Dry Ingredients:

    • In another bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together.
    • Gradually add to the wet mixture and mix until fully combined.

  • Shape the Cookies:

    • Scoop 2 tablespoons of dough and roll into balls.
    • Place on the baking sheet, spacing 2 inches apart.
    • Use a fork to gently press a crisscross pattern on each cookie.

  • Bake:

    • Bake for 10-12 minutes, until edges are slightly golden but centers remain soft.
    • Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

Notes

  • For extra chewiness, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking.
  • Use crunchy peanut butter for added texture.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days or freeze for 3 months.
