How to Make Evil Peanut Butter Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and ½ cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Add 1 cup creamy peanut butter and mix until thoroughly incorporated.
  5. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  6. In a small bowl, combine ¼ cup milk and 2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients (flour mixture) to the wet ingredients (peanut butter mixture), alternating with the milk/cream mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
  8. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls. Place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  9. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
