Place into a kitchen mixer with a flat beater attachment: 2 sticks of butter (room temperature) 1 cup of peanut butter 2 large eggs 1 cup of granulated sugar ¼ cup of brown sugar Process on high speed until fully incorporated and you reach a creamy texture (about 3 – 5 minutes). 1.2. Add: 2 cups of all-purpose flour 2 TSP of baking powder ¼ TSP of salt Process on slow speed until all ingredients are partially combined. 1.3. Then, increase the speed to medium-high and process until nicely combined (about 2 minutes). 1.4. Optionally add: ½ cup of crushed roasted peanuts And process on low to medium speed until fully incorporated (about 1 minute). 2. Scoop & bake: 2.1. Set oven to 350°F. 2.2. Form each cookie one-by-one: 2.2.1. Scoop the dough using a 1 OZ disher or set of spoons in combination with scale. 2.2.2. Form by hand into a ball. 2.2.3. Then place on a baking sheet and press with a fork in the center to form the cookie: 2.2.3.1. Partially press with a fork. 2.2.3.2. Then turn the fork about 90° and press again to a final thickness of about ½”. 2.3. Place 12 – 15 individual cookies on each of the two baking sheets (with parchment paper). 2.4. Bake in a preheated oven until fully baked (about 12 minutes). Rotate the baking sheets in the middle of baking. Important: Cookies will be softer after baking, more than you may have expected. It is important to let them cool on the baking sheet to harden. 2.5. Let cool on the baking sheets: the cookies will finish baking while cooling on the baking sheets. If parts of the ingredients stick to the side of the kitchen mixer during processing, stop the mixer, and use a spatula to mix it back in. Then, continue processing.
