Cooking Instructions
- 1
Cream the butter, which has been brought to room temperature, with a whisk until smooth. Gradually add the sugar and mix well.
- 2
Add the peanut butter and mix. Gradually add the beaten egg and mix well.
- 3
Sift in the combined flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda, and mix with a rubber spatula until no longer powdery.
- 4
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 hours. If you're in a hurry, freeze for 30 minutes.
- 5
Divide the dough into 24 equal parts and roll into balls, about 22g each. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- 6
Lightly press the dough with a fork. This is the most fun part.
- 7
Like this. Be careful not to press too hard.
- 8
Bake in the oven for 10 minutes.
- 9
Remove from the oven. It's okay if the dough is still soft. Let them cool on the baking sheet to finish!
