How can it be that in all my years I don’t think I have ever made plain peanut butter cookies? It seems I either use some random flavored peanut butter (my fav is white chocolate) or I load them up with giant chunks of chocolate. Well here they are – my first plain jane peanut butter cookies. Love that old skool flavor!!
peanut butter cookies
1 cup butter
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups flour
The usual drill.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Mix wet, add dry. Chill for maybe and hour to help them hold their shape while cooking.
Roll into balls and cross hatch with fork.
Bake for about 10 minutes. Rest for 5 minutes on the cookie sheet then cool completly on a rack.
