단계
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Sift all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl.
Sifting dry ingredients ensures a light and uniform texture in your cookies.📌
Beat unsalted butter, creamy peanut butter, and crunchy peanut butter together in a large bowl until smooth. Beat egg white and white sugar into butter mixture until smooth. Add whole egg and brown sugar; continue to beat until smooth. Gradually stir the sifted all-purpose flour mixture into the butter mixture until the batter is well mixed.
Ensure butter and peanut butter are at room temperature for easier and smoother mixing.📌
Roll dough into 1 1/4-inch balls and place 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Press balls with a fork creating a crosshatch. Freeze cookie dough on baking sheet until dough is firm, 5 to 8 minutes.
Freezing the dough briefly helps the cookies hold their shape and prevents excessive spreading during baking.📌
Bake in the preheated oven until cookies puff up, about 15 minutes. Cool on the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
Allowing cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a short period prevents them from breaking when transferred.📌
💡 팁
For a richer flavor, use full-fat peanut butter and butter, adjusting calorie expectations.These cookies are excellent for meal prep; they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or the dough balls can be frozen for future baking.If you prefer crunchier cookies, bake them for an additional 2-3 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
