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.

Chocolate chips may be substituted for the coarsely chopped chocolate. You can also use crunchy peanut butter but may want to reduce or eliminate the chopped peanuts. Cookies should be small.
