Peanut Butter Cookies

INGREDIENTS:

3/4 c butter (room temperature)

3/4 c brown sugar

1/2 c sugar

1 c peanut butter

2 eggs

1.5 tsp vanilla

2 c flour

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 c sugar (for coating)

milk chocolate candy melts (for dipping)   

Begin by creaming/mixing the first six ingredients (butter, sugars, peanut butter, eggs and vanilla).  Once mixed incorporate the dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt), mix well.

When the dough is ready begin to make small balls, then roll them lightly on the extra sugar and place on a lined cookie sheet.  Flatten the cookies slightly with a crisscross pattern using a fork.  Bake cookies at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 12-14 minutes.

Once cooled, you may dip the cookie half way in the melted chocolate candy melts.  Let set.  Enjoy!!
