Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking trays with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is smooth and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes using an electric mixer on medium speed.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until just combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms. Avoid overmixing to keep the cookies tender.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, portion the dough into 1.5-inch balls and arrange them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking trays.
Flatten each dough ball slightly with the tines of a fork, creating a crisscross pattern on the surface.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are just starting to firm up but the centers are still soft. Do not overbake; the cookies will continue to firm up as they cool.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking trays for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your perfectly soft, chewy peanut butter cookies with a glass of cold milk or as a standalone treat!
