Peanut Butter Cookies
If it’s the sweet-salty rush you’re after and you’re a peanut butter addict just like me and my mom, this super easy recipe is for you! I swear you’d be making batch after batch after batch of this! I’ll let you in on a little cookie secret: to come up with perfect cookies, you have to start with all your ingredients at room temperature.
Yup, butter should be softened (but not melted) and eggs shouldn’t be too cold. So don’t forget this every time you think of making cookies so you will come up with consistently yummy results. This is a really easy recipe because were using the “one stage method” wherein all your ingredients are placed in a huge bowl, and just let your electric mixer do the mixing!
This is a fun thing you can do this with your kids or your friends or loved ones and it’s guaranteed to be a worthwhile activity! Well, enough reading, let’s start baking!!
For 40 pcs small cookies you will need the following ingredients:
- 2½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup crunchy peanut butter
- 1 cup unsalted butter
