Ingredients

  • 1 cup (222g) salted butter softened
  • 1 1/2 cups (345g) granulated sugar divided
  • 3/4 cup (185g) brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups (369g) creamy peanut butter divided
  • 3 1/4 cups (494g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 3/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter, 1 cup granulated sugar and brown sugar.
    1 cup (222g) salted butter, 1 1/2 cups (345g) granulated sugar, 3/4 cup (185g) brown sugar
  • Scrape the sides of the bowl and add in the eggs, vanilla and 1 cup of the peanut butter. Mix until well combined.
    2 eggs, 2 tsp vanilla extract, 1 1/2 cups (369g) creamy peanut butter
  • Add the flour, salt, and baking powder to the bowl and mix until combined.
    3 1/4 cups (494g) all-purpose flour, 1 tsp baking powder, 3/4 tsp salt
  • Scoop the dough out using a 1/2 cup measuring cup to divide the dough evenly into 10 cookies.
  • Roll the cookie dough into a ball and then use your thumb to create a pocket in the middle of the cookie dough.
  • Measure out the remaining 1/2 cup of peanut butter.
    1 1/2 cups (369g) creamy peanut butter
  • Spoon approx 1/2 tbsp of creamy peanut butter into each pocket and then close the cookie dough around the peanut butter.
  • Slightly flatten the cookie so the cookie looks like a hockey puck. Repeat with remaining cookie dough.
  • Add the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar to a bowl, roll and press the sugar onto the outside of each of the cookies.
    1 1/2 cups (345g) granulated sugar
  • Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 17-20 minutes.
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the pan for 15 minutes.
  • Once they have cooled for 15 minutes, add the rest of the creamy peanut butter (about 1/4 cup) into a zip top bag. Warm the peanut butter in your hand by massaging it a bit.
  • Snip the corner of the baggie and drizzle the warm peanut butter cookies in a circular looping motion. Repeat with all of the cookies. Serve warm.
