Peanut Butterand chopped nut Cookie Recipe

These cookies are a favourite treat for young children. I have included an extra easy peanut butter cookie recipe at the bottom of the page for those days when you want a treat but don't have the time.
Peanut Butter Cookie Recipe Ingredients
• 1/2 cup butter, softened
• 1/2 cup peanut butter mixed with 1/4 cup crushed/chopped nuts
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 large egg
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
• granulated sugar

Method:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and peanut butter on high speed for 30 seconds. Add the sugar, brown sugar, baking soda and baking powder. Mix until combined, scraping the sides of the bowl occasionally. Beat in the egg and vanilla until combined. Beat in as much of the flour as you can with the mixer. Stir in the remaining flour.
Cover and chill dough until easy to handle, approximately 1 hour.

Shape dough into 1 inch balls. Roll balls in granulated sugar and place balls 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
Flatten the dough balls by using a fork to make a criss-cross pattern on the cookies.
Bake in a 375 degree oven for 7 to 9 minutes or until bottoms are lightly brown.
Cool cookies on a wire rack.
