Ingredients
- 1 cup of creamy or crunchy peanut butter
- 1 cup of butter
- 1 cup of brown sugar
- 1/2 cup of white sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 1/2 cups flour
- 1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- 1 tsp. salt
- Optional: 1 cup chopped salted peanuts (Omit that teaspoon of salt if you use salted peanuts!)
- You can add chocolate chips, coconut and candies such as M&M's.
- *The picture above was taken of a batch I made using the crunchy peanut butter and I did not add extra peanuts in this batch.
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Mix the butter with the peanut butter until well combined.
- Add the two sugars and stir.
- Add the eggs and stir again until well combined.
- Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
- Stir well.
- On a baking pan covered in Release Aluminum foil or a silicon mat, drop large scoops of cookie dough on to the foil. I used an ice cream scooper for cookies that were approximately 5 inches in diameter after baking. (A 1/4 cup scooper)
- Leave at least 2 to 3 inches of space between each cookie as they do expand in the oven.
- Before baking, use the back of the scooper or your fingers to press down on the cookie dough, leaving each cookie fairly flat, about a quarter of an inch high. (You can use a fork and make lines if you like.)
- Bake for 12-14 minutes until golden brown. If you want a softer cookie, bake for less time.
