How to Make Soft and Chewy Peanut Butter Cookies

Sinking your teeth into chewy peanut butter cookies is pure joy! Loaded with chocolate, these goodies are a crowd-pleaser. Learn my best tips for making the best peanut butter cookies ever!

1. Cream butter and sugar.

Tip: European-style butter with a fat content of 82% makes for extra soft and delicious cookies.

2. Add egg, vanilla and peanut butter.

Tip: Creamy peanut butter is best for cookie dough. I don't recommend using homemade peanut butter, as this results in dry and crumbly cookies.

3. Add dry ingredients and add-ins.

Tip: If you like to add mix-ins, I recommend a combination of chopped chocolate bars and peanut butter chips.

4. Chill the dough before baking.

Tip: Chilling makes for a better texture and balanced taste. Chill the dough for at least 1 hour and up to 2 days.

5. Bake.

Tip: Don't bake the cookies too long or they will dry out. You'll know when they're done when you see tiny cracks all over the surface.
