Peanut Butter Heaven

Gotta love that peanut butter. Spain is not a big fan. They sell it and people eat it but they never heard of the PBJ or PB and banana sandwiches! So I wasn't sure how these cookies would be received; turns out, I had nothing to worry about, they were a hit!

These are the best cookies to eat with a nice cup of coffee, hot coco or tea.

Peanut Butter Cookies

Ingredients:

1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 egg
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp salt


Preheat the oven at 180C.

In a large bowl, beat the room temperature butter into cream.

Add the brown and white sugar.

Mix well.

Incorporate the egg, peanut butter, baking soda, powder and salt.

Mix well.

Add the flour and mix well but do not overstir. (I only added 1 cup and realized it wasn't enough, which is why I wrote 2 cups in the ingredients)

Add the vanilla.

Mix well.

Place the cookie dough with a spoon onto a baking sheet.

Using a fork, flatten the cookie dough making a design.

Cook for about 10 minutes or until the required color. I like them light and David likes them dark.

Let them cool down and plate.

Easy, fast and full of Peanut butter flavor!

Enjoy :)
