Soft Peanut Butter Cookies
Ingredients
  • 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup reduced-fat creamy peanut butter (such as Jif®)
  • 1/2 cup reduced-fat crunchy peanut butter (such as (Jif®)
  • 1 egg white
  • 1/3 cup white sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
Instructions
1
First, preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Next, combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl and sift them together.
2
In another large bowl, cream butter with creamy peanut butter until smooth. Then, blend in crunchy peanut butter and continue to mix until well combined.
3
Add egg white and white sugar to the bowl, blending them together with butter mixture until smooth. Next, incorporate whole egg and brown sugar into the mix.
4
Gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture, blending until batter is thoroughly incorporated.
5
Take small portions of the dough and shape into 1 1/4-inch balls. Place these balls 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.
6
Using a fork, press each ball into the baking sheet to create a crosshatch pattern. Allow cookie dough to firm up on the baking sheet for 5 to 8 minutes.
7
Place the frozen cookie dough balls back onto the preheated baking sheets and bake until cookies rise, approximately 15 minutes.
8
Once done, remove the cookies from baking sheets and let them cool for 10 minutes on the pans. Finally, transfer the cooled cookies to a wire rack for complete cooling.
