Vanilla Peanut Butter Cookies

Ingredients

Wheat Flour - 2½ cups
Salt - 1 teaspoon
Activated Baking Soda - ½ teaspoon
Baking Powder - ½ teaspoon
Brown Sugar - 1 cup
Salted Butter - 8.1 oz
Granulated sugar - 1 cup
Peanut Butter - 1 cup
Vanilla extract - 2 teaspoons
Farm fresh eggs - 2 pieces
Unsalted peanuts, shelled - 4.9 oz

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 356°F. In a large bowl, mix the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder, then set aside. Toast the peanuts in a dry skillet for 5 minutes, then chop them into fine crumbs using a food processor.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the sugar and softened butter, then beat with a mixer on medium speed for 3-6 minutes. Add the peanut butter and continue to beat for another 30 seconds, then add the vanilla extract, one egg at a time, and beat for another 30 seconds.

Step 3

Reduce the mixer speed and gradually add the flour, continuing to mix for another 30 seconds. Add the peanuts and stir to combine.

Step 4

Using a tablespoon, scoop out 3 tablespoons of dough, form into balls, and place them on 2 lined baking sheets, leaving about 5 cm between each ball. Use a fork to create a crisscross pattern on each ball. Bake for 7 minutes, then rotate and swap the baking sheets and continue baking for another 5 minutes.
