I got this recipe from a wife of a co-worker. The recipe is called "Peanut Butter Cookies" but they are honestly the best peanut butter cookies that I have ever tasted in my life. I have not made these myself before because my boyfriend isn't crazy about peanut butter cookies so I do not know how much the recipe will make so I am going to give it my best estimated guess. For all of you peanut butter cookie lovers, I really hope that you enjoy this recipe as much as I did.

PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES



Peanut Butter Cookies image

Categories     Cookies     Nut     Bake     Kid-Friendly     Peanut     Fall     Gourmet     Small Plates

Yield Makes about 50 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups chunky peanut butter (not "all-natural")
1 cup packed light brown sugar
1 large egg
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Beat together butter, peanut butter, and sugar with an electric mixer until pale and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in egg, then remaining ingredients until a dough forms.
  • Arrange level tablespoons of dough 1 1/2 inches apart on 2 buttered baking sheets, then flatten in a crosshatch pattern to a 2 1/2-inch round with fork tines.
  • Bake in middle of oven until slightly puffed, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool on sheets 1 minute, then transfer cookies to a rack.

Tips:

  • Use Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the final product, so use the best peanut butter, butter, and sugar you can find.
  • Chill the Dough: Chilling the dough before baking helps to prevent the cookies from spreading too much and keeps them from becoming too oily.
  • Don't Overmix the Dough: Overmixing the dough can make the cookies tough, so mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a Cookie Scoop: A cookie scoop helps to ensure that all of your cookies are the same size and shape, which will help them bake evenly.
  • Bake the Cookies Until They Are Just Set: The cookies should be slightly golden brown around the edges and just set in the center when they are done baking.

Conclusion:

These fancy peanut butter cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their rich peanut butter flavor, decadent chocolate ganache, and elegant appearance, these cookies are sure to impress your friends and family. So next time you're in the mood for something sweet, give these cookies a try - you won't be disappointed!
