Serves: 3 doz
Ingredients
  • 2½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 cup butter, room temp
  • 1 cup smooth peanut butter
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • ¼ cup white chocolate wafers
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350℉. Line 3 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In medium size bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt.
  3. In the bowl of a stand mixer, mix the butter and peanut butter on medium speed until well blended. Add in the sugars and beat until fluffy.
  4. Add in the egg and vanilla and beat until combined, just about 1 minute.
  5. Add in the flour mixture and mix on the slowest speed until the flour is all combined.
  6. With a large sized scoop, drop balls onto cookie sheets - 12 per sheet.
  7. Using a fork dipped in cold water, press into dough to imprint the tines.
  8. Bake for 14 to 16 minutes just until golden around the edges, baking 1 sheet at a time. Let cool on the baking sheets about 5 minutes before removing to a cooling rack to cool completely.
  9. In a small glass bowl, melt the chocolate in the microwave in 15 second increments. Stir after each time until smooth. Pour either into a piping bag or a baggie with a corner snipped off. Drizzle over cooled cookies. Let set at room temp. Store in an airtight container.
