Grandma Maxines Classic Peanut Butter Cookies Recipes

GRANDMA'S OLD-FASHIONED PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES

Steps:

• Place butter and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl; beat with a stand mixer or electric mixer at medium speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes. While continuing to beat, gradually add brown sugar and granulated sugar; beat until well combined.
• Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition until incorporated. Add peanut butter and beat until combined.
• Add flour, baking powder, and salt; mix on low speed until just combined.
• Roll dough into 1-inch balls; place on a cookie sheet. Flatten with a fork dipped in granulated sugar; repeat with the fork turned perpendicular to the first marks to create a cross-hatch pattern.
• Bake at 375 degrees for about 9 minutes, or until very lightly browned.
• I like my peanut butter cookies soft, so I watch them closely while baking and take them out of the oven as soon as they are lightly browned.
