Ingredients

1/2 cup butter, softened1/2 cup sugar1/2 cup packed brown sugar1/2 cup peanut butter1 egg1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour1/2 teaspoon baking soda1/2 teaspoon baking powderAdditional sugar

Preparation

In a bowl, cream butter and sugars. Add peanut butter, egg and vanilla; beat until smooth. Combine the flour, baking soda and baking powder; add to creamed mixture and mix well. For easier shaping, chill the dough for 1 hour. Shape into 1-in. balls; place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Flatten each ball by crisscrossing with the tines of a fork dipped in sugar. Bake at 375° for 10-12 minutes or until bottoms are lightly browned and cookies are set.
