Enlarge Nothing beats a good peanut butter cookie, and it's easy to make them perfectly every time. All you need are a few ingredients, a little time, and you're ready to bake.

Step 1: Dry Ingredients

  • ½ cups (120ml) sugar
  • ½ cups (120ml) brown sugar, packed
  • ½ cups (120ml) butter, room temperature
  • ½ cups (120ml) peanut butter
  • 1 egg
  • ¾ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 ¼ cups (310ml) all-purpose flour
  • Mixing bowl
  • Mixer or whisk
  • Parchment paper
  • Cookie sheet
  • Plastic wrap

Step 2: Mix

In a large bowl, cream the butter, then add both sugars and cream until smooth. Mix in the peanut butter and the egg, and then stir in the flour mixture. That's it - that's your dough.

Step 3: Wait

Wrap your dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours before you try to work with it. You'll know it's ready when it's firm to the touch.

Step 4: Roll

Roll the chilled dough into 1 to 1 1/2 inch balls, then place them onto a parchment paper-lined cookie sheet. Leave about three inches between the cookies - they'll spread as they bake - and since they're peanut butter cookies, use a fork to flatten them and make criss-cross patterns on top.

Step 5: Bake

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees (190 C, Gas Mark 5). Bake your cookies about 9-11 minutes, until they turn a light brown color. Let them cool on the pan for a minute, and then move them to a cooling rack.

Done.
