Tips:
- For a chewier cookie, chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking.
- To make the cookies even more peanut buttery, use a combination of creamy and crunchy peanut butter.
- If you don't have a stand mixer, you can cream the butter and sugar together with a hand mixer or even a wooden spoon.
- Be sure to measure the flour correctly. Too much flour will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set around the edges. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before storing them in an airtight container.
