These are definitely worth the calories! :) The cream cheese makes these cookies a little softer and milder than regular peanut butter cookies. Adapted from a Jif holiday cookbook recipe Ingredients:
3 cups flour |
2 teaspoons baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
4 ounces cream cheese |
1 cup butter, softened |
3/4 cup sugar |
1 cup dark brown sugar |
2 eggs |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 cup peanut butter |
2 1/2 cups unsalted peanuts |
Directions:
1. Combine first three ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
2. Beat cream cheese and butter at medium speed; add sugars and beat for 4 minutes; add eggs and vanilla and mix at low; add in peanut butter and combine fully.
3. Add flour mixture and mix at low speed.
4. Stir in peanuts.
5. Refrigerate dough overnight.
6. Preheat oven to 350.
