Steps:
- Place butter and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl; beat with a stand mixer or electric mixer at medium speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes. While continuing to beat, gradually add brown sugar and granulated sugar; beat until well combined.
- Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition until incorporated. Add peanut butter and beat until combined.
- Add flour, baking powder, and salt; mix on low speed until just combined.
- Roll dough into 1-inch balls; place on a cookie sheet. Flatten with a fork dipped in granulated sugar; repeat with the fork turned perpendicular to the first marks to create a cross-hatch pattern.
- Bake at 375 degrees for about 9 minutes, or until very lightly browned.
- I like my peanut butter cookies soft, so I watch them closely while baking and take them out of the oven as soon as they are lightly browned.

OLD-FASHIONED PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
My mother insisted that my grandmother write down one recipe for her when Mom got married in 1942: the how to make peanut butter cookies from scratch recipe. That was a real effort because Grandma was a traditional pioneer-type cook who used a little of this or that until it felt right. This treasured recipe is the only one she ever wrote down! -Janet Hall, Clinton, Wisconsin

GRANDMA'S PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
My Grandma and Mom made these cookies often when I was growing up and I have been making them for my kids for 20 years! I have tried many other peanut butter cookie recipes, but this one is still our favorite. Crispy, but a light texture . . . they almost melt in your mouth!
