Some stacked peanut butter snickerdoodles.

Peanut Butter Snickerdoodles

Brooke Homec
These peanut butter snickerdoodles are chewy with a slightly crisp edge. They're loaded with peanut butter flavor and rolled in a delicious cinnamon sugar mixture.

Ingredients
 

  • 1 cup (227 g) butter room temperature
  • 1 cup (258 g) creamy peanut butter not natural
  • 1½ cups (330 g) brown sugar
  • ½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1½ teaspoon (1.5 teaspoon) baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon (0.25 teaspoon) cinnamon
  • 2½ cups (350 g) all-purpose flour
  • ⅓ cup (66.67 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 F. Line two cookie sheets with parchement paper.
  • Place the butter, peanut butter and sugars together in a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat about 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.
  • Add eggs one at a time, mix until smooth on low speed. Beat in vanilla.
  • Slowly mix in salt, baking soda cinnamon and flour, being careful not to over mix. I usually stop when I still have some flour remnants around the bowl.
  • Using a large cookie scoop, (I use a 3 TBSP) scoop dough into balls and place on a large cookie sheet.
  • Roll cookie dough balls in ⅓ cup granulated sugar mixed with 1 tablespoon of cinnamon.
  • Place 6-8 balls per sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are slightly golden brown. Let cool on the cookie sheet for 5-10 minutes to help the center finish setting.

Notes

I like to sprinkle extra cinnamon sugar on top of the cookies after they bake for an extra pretty look. And if you know me, sometimes a little salt too!
I have given both cups and grams as measurements. Grams will be more precise, especially when measuring flour. If you don’t have a kitchen scale, no problem! Just lightly spoon flour into your measuring cup to insure its not packed in there. Light and fluffy is the key.
