How to Make Old Fashioned Peanut Butter Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 cup creamy or crunchy peanut butter, 1 cup granulated sugar, and 3/4 cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Roll rounded tablespoons of dough into balls and place them 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.
- Use a fork to flatten each cookie, creating a criss-cross pattern.
- Sprinkle with coarse sugar, if desired.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
