Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ½ cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup butter
  • ½ cup vegetable shortening
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup of sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 eggs (beaten)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup M&M’s (optional)

Instructions

  1. Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees. Sift together flour, baking soda, and baking powder in a bowl. Beat butter, shortening, and peanut butter until smooth. Add white sugar and brown sugar and beat until smooth.
  2. Add the eggs on at a time and then add vanilla extract until blended. Use your hands or a spoon and add the flour mixture to complete cookie dough.
  3. One at time scoop dough with a teaspoon (can use a tablespoon for larger cookies) and drop dough in 1” balls onto a cookie sheet. Place 2 inches apart. With a fork dipped in flour flatten cookies. Then flatten in the opposite direction (so they cross).
  4. Bake in the oven for 9-10 minutes for chewy cookies or 11-12 for crispy.
