  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Cream ingredients: In a large bowl, cream together peanut butter, softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add eggs and vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla extract.
  4. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Mix dough: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
  6. Scoop and bake: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, press each cookie with a fork, and bake for 10–12 minutes.
  7. Cool and enjoy: Let cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For extra chewiness, slightly underbake the cookies and let them finish setting as they cool.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
