Peanut Butter Blossom Cookies
Peanut Butter Blossom Cookies
Prep Time: 15 Minutes Cook Time: 8 Minutes Yields: 50 (2-inch cookies.)
1 cup creamy peanut butter 1/2 cup butter, softened 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1/2 cup brown sugar, firmly packed 1 large egg 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1-1/2 cup all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 teaspoon salt
1.) Preheat oven to 350°F.
2.) In a stand mixer, cream together the peanut butter, butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar. Beat together until creamy.
3.) Add the egg and vanilla extract; continue to mix until well combined.
4.) In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
5.) Slowly add the flour mixture to the creamed peanut butter mixture; mix until well combined.
6.) Using a teaspoon size cookie dough scoop, scoop up the cookie batter, and make 1-inch balls; then place them on baking sheet that's been lined with parchment paper.
7.) Bake in oven for 8 to 9 minutes. (Don't over-bake the cookies.) Make sure the bottom of the cookie is lightly browned.
8.) Let cookies sit for one minute on cookie sheet. Then lightly press a chocolate star in the center of each cookie.
9.) Transfer cookies to a wire rack to allow the cookies to cool. Once all the cookies have cooled, I then place them back on a cookie sheet (without the parchment paper), and place the cookie sheet in my freezer, so the chocolate star firms up. Later I store the cookies in a Tupperware Container in the freezer. These cookies keep well for some time in the freezer.
