STEPS

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.

Prepare Peanut Butter Dough: Cream together butter, white sugar, and dark brown sugar until uniform. Mix in peanut butter, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add egg yolk, then flour to form dough. Cover with plastic wrap.

Prepare Ginger-Molasses Dough: Cream together white sugar, butter, ground ginger, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, and salt. Mix in egg, molasses, and flour until combined. Fold in crystallized ginger.

Shape Cookies: Roll ginger-molasses dough into walnut-sized balls, flatten slightly, and brush with water. Roll peanut butter dough into marble-sized balls, flatten with a fork to create a crisscross pattern, and place on top.

Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes, until the edges of the top cookies are golden brown. Cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
