Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup butter unsalted, room temp
1 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup brown sugar, lightly packed
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 egg large, room temp
3/4 tsp baking powder

Directions:
Directions:
Preheat over to 350F. Sift flour and baking powder together then whisk to combine. Cream butter and sugars in a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. You can add an optional 1/4-1/2 tsp sea salt. Add peanut butter and mix until incorporated. Mix in egg and vanilla extract then add flour mixture and beat until incorporated. Roll dough into one inch balls and place on baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Flatten cookies with a fork in a criss-cross pattern. Bake cookies for about 10 minutes. Allow cookies to cool completely on baking sheet, they need to set up before being transferred.
 Makes 18.

You will bake the cookies until almost done. They will set up and continue baking with the residual internal heat after they're pulled out of the oven.

They will be VERY soft just out of the oven so let them rest for a while; when cooled they will be firm enough to handle and quite delicious.  

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This has to be the best peanut butter cookie recipe ever! I add 1/2 tsp salt to the batter. I also use my cookie scoop to portion the dough, roll the top into Sugar in the raw, but do not flatten them out. Because of this, I add a couple of minutes to the baking time.
