How to Make Peanut Butter Shortbread
- Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and peanut butter until smooth and creamy.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing until well combined.
- Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Add the flour, one cup at a time, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Shape the dough into a 1-inch thick rectangle or roll out to desired thickness (about 1/2 inch).
- Using a cookie cutter or knife, cut the dough into desired shapes.
- Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between them.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Watch carefully to prevent browning.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
