BOUCHON BAKERY'S 'NUTTER BUTTERS'



Bouchon Bakery's 'Nutter Butters' image

This peanut butter sandwich cookie is a smaller version of the gargantuan homemade Nutter Butters served at Bouchon Bakery, Thomas Keller's restaurant in the Time Warner Center. It is pure peanut sophistication; two crunchy, crisp peanut butter cookies filled with pillowy peanut-butter frosting. These cookies spread a fair amount while baking, so be sure to give them plenty of room on the baking sheet and let them cool and firm up before filling. (After reading through some of the reader comments, we retested the original recipe and decided to make the cookies smaller and double the filling. We've edited the below recipe to reflect those changes.)

Time 1h15m

Yield About 50 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups/256 grams all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
4 teaspoons baking soda
1 pound/454 grams (4 sticks) salted butter, at room temperature
2/3 cup/180 grams creamy peanut butter, preferably Skippy
1 cup/201 grams granulated sugar
1 cup/200 grams firmly packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/3 cup/47 grams coarsely chopped peanuts
2 1/2 cups/223 grams quick-cooking oats
1/2 pound/227 grams (2 sticks) salted butter, at room temperature
1 cup/270 grams creamy peanut butter, preferably Skippy
3 1/3 cups/410 grams confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder and baking soda; set aside. Using a mixer with a paddle attachment, cream together the butter and peanut butter. Add sugars and beat at medium speed for 4 minutes, scraping down bowl twice.
  • At low speed, add eggs one at a time and vanilla. Add flour mixture and mix at low speed until well combined, scraping down bowl as necessary. Add peanuts and oats, and mix well. Using an ice cream scoop 1½ inches in diameter (about 1 heaping tablespoon), place balls of dough on parchment-lined baking sheets at least 2 ½ inches apart. Bake until cookies have spread and turned golden brown, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside to cool and firm up on the baking sheet, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool completely before filling.
  • Using an electric mixer, cream together the butter, peanut butter and confectioners' sugar until very smooth.
  • To assemble cookies, spread a thin layer (about 1/8 inch) on underside of a cookie. Sandwich with another cookie, being careful not break them. Repeat.

PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES



Peanut Butter Cookies image

The hash mark may be one of the most prevalent symbols in modern life, but it's been the "mark" of peanut butter cookies for more than eighty years, and for good reason. Pressing a hash mark into each cookie ensures this dense dough will flatten out and bake evenly. While using this kitchen-tested recipe ensures your peanut butter cookies will turn out perfectly. It's been in Betty's back pocket for quite some time, and you can bet this recipe isn't going anywhere soon. Home cooks from all over have claimed this to be the best peanut butter cookie they've ever made-and we certainly agree! Soft and chewy with the perfect salty-sweet balance, these tender cookies will disappear at every potluck, party or cookie exchange. For an added bit of sparkle, roll your cookies in coarse sparkling sugar just before baking.

PEANUT BUTTER COOKIE INGREDIENTS
1/2 c butter, softened
1/2 c peanut butter, creamy
1/2 c granulated sugar
1/2 c light brown sugar, packed
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 large egg
3/4 c white whole wheat flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 c quick oats
PEANUT BUTTER SANDWICH CREAM FILLING
3 Tbsp butter, softened
1 c confectioners sugar
1/2 c peanut butter, creamy
2-1/2 Tbsp cream

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven 350 - Going to bake these cookies on plain un-greased cookie sheets.
  • 2. Cream together butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar.
  • 3. Then add vanilla and the egg.
  • 4. While using my Kitchen-Aid mixer, I add each remaining dry ingredient while mixing on low while adding each item down the list. Scrape the bowl and blend another minute or so.
  • 5. I used a rounded 1/2 tablespoon measuring spoon while creating complete half rounds of dough.
  • 6. Gently press fork indenting criss-cross while keeping dough 1/4 inch thick.
  • 7. I prepare 2 pans before beginning the actual baking cycle. This keeps pace with baking each pan 5-8 minutes.
  • 8. Remove from oven once edges are beginning to brown.
  • 9. Cool cookies on the baking sheets 3 minutes (the cookies continue to bake on those hot sheets) before removing onto wire rack. They will appear as having lovely light golden brown bottoms. Once all cookies have been properly baked and cooled make your sandwich cookie filling.
  • 10. PEANUT BUTTER FILLING: Place all ingredients in mixer bowl.
  • 11. Cream until well combined.
  • 12. Using between 1 teaspoon - 1/2 tablespoon, create your sandwich cream filled cookies (amount of filling based on your preference). For even larger cookies use 1 rounded tablespoon.

PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES



Peanut Butter Cookies image

This version of the childhood favorite was developed by the gang at America's Test Kitchen and originally published in Cook's Illustrated magazine back in 1998. We brought it to The Times when we profiled Christopher Kimball, then the grand poobah of America's Test Kitchen, in 2009. It calls for extra crunchy peanut butter, plus a full cup of roasted salted peanuts, which results in a super crunchy and delightfully salty-sweet treat.

Categories     dessert

Time 35m

Yield 4 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup roasted salted peanuts
1/2 pound (2 sticks) salted butter
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup extra-crunchy peanut butter
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Adjust oven rack to low center position. Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, sift flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside. Place peanuts in a food processor and pulse until the texture of bread crumbs. Set aside.
  • In bowl of electric mixer or by hand, beat butter until creamy. Add sugars and beat until fluffy, about 3 minutes, scraping sides as necessary. Then beat in crunchy peanut butter until fully incorporated, followed by eggs and vanilla. Gently stir dry ingredients into peanut butter mixture. Fold in ground peanuts just until incorporated.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drop dough onto sheet in spoonfuls a little bigger than a golf ball, about two inches apart. Dip a fork in cold water and then press the back into dough, repeating to make a crisscross.
  • Bake until cookies are puffed and slightly brown along edges, but not top, 11 to 12 minutes. They will not look completely baked. Cool cookies on cookie sheet until set, about 3 minutes. Transfer to wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with remaining dough.

THE BEST PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES



The Best Peanut Butter Cookies image

We wanted a super peanut buttery treat but found that store-bought peanut butter made the cookies a bit gummy when we used more than 1 cup. So we ground roasted peanuts ourselves and added that to the batter for an additional boost of flavor. Honey and melted butter add richness and create a soft and chewy cookie with an irresistible crackled exterior. We topped the dough balls with raw sugar for extra crunch and a hit of sweetness that balances the salt of the peanuts.

Time 1h30m

Yield 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup salted dry-roasted peanuts
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 cup creamy peanut butter (do not use "natural" peanut butter)
2 large eggs
1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
3 tablespoons honey
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup raw sugar

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Process the peanuts in a food processor until very finely ground; it should be the consistency of almond flour. Whisk together the ground peanuts, flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Beat the brown sugar, granulated sugar, peanut butter, eggs, melted butter, honey and vanilla in a large bowl with an electric mixer until completely smooth. Add the dry ingredients and beat on low until a soft dough forms.
  • Working with 2 tablespoons of dough at a time (or using a 1-ounce ice cream scoop), roll the dough into balls. Evenly space them on the prepared baking sheets (12 balls per sheet). Sprinkle with the raw sugar.
  • Bake the cookies, 1 baking sheet at a time, until the edges are just set and just beginning to brown, 12 to 15 minutes, rotating the baking sheet halfway through. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
