½ cup unsalted butter
½ cup white sugar
½ cup packed brown sugar
½ cup creamy peanut butter
½ teaspoon kosher salt

1 egg
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Beat butter, white sugar, brown sugar, peanut butter, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a stand mixer until smooth.
  • Scrape down the sides of the bowl and beater with a spatula. Add egg and mix for about 1 minute.
