Ingredients

• 0.5 cup (1 stick), softened unsalted butter
• 0.75 cup creamy peanut butter
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup, packed light brown sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.75 cup mini peanut butter cups or peanut butter chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream together the unsalted butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until fully incorporated.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Gently fold in the mini peanut butter cups or peanut butter chips using a spatula.

Step 7

Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough (a small cookie scoop works well) and roll it into a ball. Place the dough balls 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.

Step 8

Lightly press each dough ball with the back of a fork to create a crisscross pattern.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 9–11 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops look slightly golden (cookies may look underbaked, but they will firm up as they cool).

Step 10

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Serve with a cold glass of milk and enjoy your Double Delight Peanut Butter Cookies!
