LIGHT AND SOFT PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
I never liked how peanut butter cookies turned out. They were always too greasy-feeling or too hard and never were soft a few days later. After a lot of trial and error batches, now I get rave reviews from these cookies. They are very rich and soft for those who do not like the typical crunchy style of peanut butter cookies. They do take a bit of time to prepare and cook but very much worth the wait. I used reduced-fat peanut butter in both crunchy and creamy to make for a rich-tasting cookie with more peanut flavor and a less greasy feeling on your hand.

SOFT -CHEWY PEANUT BUTTER DROP COOKIES
I found a version of this recipe in an old Southern Living Cookbook. I did make a few adjustments that I thought would elevate the flavors. I used extra peanut butter, added Vanilla Bean Paste instead of extract, & increased the baking powder. These cookies are soft & chewy & are a drop cookie, so it doesn't take long to make or...

THICK AND SOFT CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES (GLUTEN-FREE
Steps:
- To the mixing bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine peanut butter, brown sugar, egg, vanilla, and beat on medium-high speed until well-combined and the sugar is fully incorporated and is mixture is no longer gritty or granular, about 5 minutes. Stop to scrape down the bowl as necessary. Note regarding peanut butter - although natural peanut butter or homemade peanut butter may work, I recommend using storebought peanut butter like Jif, Skippy, Peter Pan or similar so that cookies bake up thicker and spread less. Using natural or homemade peanut butter tends to result in thinner, flatter cookies, that are prone to spreading. Add the cocoa powder (I don't bother to sift), baking soda, and beat to incorporate, 1 to 2 minutes. Dough may be a bit crumbly in pieces, but pieces should all stick together forming a large mound when pinched, squeezed, and pushed together. If your dough seems dry, adding 1 to 2 additional tablespoons of peanut butter will help it combine. Using a 2-inch medium cookie scoop (about 2 heaping tablespoons of dough or 1.80 ounces by weight), form dough mounds or roll dough into balls. Recipe makes 13 cookies; dividing dough into 13 equal portions is another way to do this. Place dough on a large plate and flatten each mound with a fork, making a criss-cross pattern on top. Slightly flattening the mounds before baking ensures they don't stay too domed and puffed while baking because this dough, when properly chilled, doesn't spread much; just don't over-flatten. Cover plate with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 5 days, before baking. Do not bake with warm dough. Preheat oven to 350F, line 2 baking sheets with Silpat Non-Stick Baking Mats, parchment, or spray with cooking spray; set aside. Space dough 2 inches apart (8 to 10 per tray) and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until edges are set and tops are barely set, even if slightly underbaked in the center.
Tips:
- Measuring Ingredients Accurately: Use a measuring cup and spoon set to ensure precise measurements. Level off dry ingredients using a knife or straight edge.
- Creaming Butter and Sugar: Creaming butter and sugar together creates a light and fluffy mixture that contributes to the cookies' texture. Make sure to beat them until they are pale yellow in color.
- Chilling the Dough: Chilling the dough before baking helps it to firm up and prevents it from spreading too much in the oven. This results in thicker, softer cookies.
- Baking at the Right Temperature: Bake the cookies at the specified temperature and for the recommended amount of time. Overbaking can dry out the cookies and make them hard.
- Using Fresh Baking Powder: Baking powder is a leavening agent that helps the cookies to rise. Make sure to use fresh baking powder to ensure the cookies rise properly.
- Storing the Cookies Properly: Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the cookies for up to 2 months.
