Cream Cheese Peanut Butter Cookies

These may look like pretty standard peanut butter cookies, but one bite will tell you that’s not the case. There’s just a little extra something. Something a little richer. Something more flavorful.

THE RECIPE

INGREDIENTS

• 1 & 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup creamy or crunchy peanut butter
• sanding sugar, for garnish

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone liners.
2. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the butter, cream cheese, sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla, and mix well. Mix in the peanut butter.
4. Reduce mixer speed to low. Gradually add the flour mixture, mixing just until combined.
