Must Have Peanut Butter Cookies

What you will need:

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup refrigerated Kirkland Organic Creamy Peanut Butter

1 cup granulated sugar

1 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed

2 eggs

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking powder

1 1/2 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

Beat butter, peanut butter and sugars until creamy. Beat in eggs. In a separate bowl, sift flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Stir into batter until blended. Refrigerate 1 hour . Roll dough into 1 inch balls and place on baking sheets. Flatten each ball with fork, making a criss-cross pattern. Bake in preheated 375 degrees Fahrenheit oven about 10 minutes or until cookies begin to brown. Do not over bake.

Tip: the type of peanut butter and its temperature matters a lot

Makes 4 dozen cookies
