Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup Peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 1 piece Large egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Chopped peanuts
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats for easy cleanup.
In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and creamy. This should take about 2-3 minutes with an electric mixer on medium speed.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix until fully incorporated, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix on low speed just until the dough comes together and no streaks of flour remain.
Fold in the chopped peanuts using a spatula or wooden spoon, distributing them evenly throughout the dough.
Using a large cookie scoop or a tablespoon, scoop dough into balls and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Flatten each ball of dough slightly with the back of a fork, creating a crisscross pattern on top of each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and lightly golden. The centers will appear soft but will firm up as the cookies cool.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve your Big Super Nutty Peanut Butter Cookies with a cold glass of milk and enjoy!
