Classic Peanut Butter Cookies

Ingredients

• unsalted butter (1 cup)
• crunchy peanut butter (1 cup)
• white sugar (1 cup)
• packed brown sugar (1 cup)
• large eggs (2 )
• all-purpose flour (2.5 cups)
• baking soda (1.5 teaspoons)
• baking powder (1 teaspoon)
• salt (0.5 teaspoon)

Instructions

1. Gather all ingredients.
2. Beat butter, peanut butter, white sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth; beat in eggs.
3. Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt into a separate bowl; stir into butter mixture until dough is just combined. Chill cookie dough in the refrigerator for 1 hour to make it easier to work with.
4. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Roll dough into 1-inch balls and place 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Flatten each ball with a fork, making a crisscross pattern.
5. Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, about 7 to 10 minutes.
6. Cool on the baking sheets briefly before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
