Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar (plus extra for topping)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (for filling)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened (for filling)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (for filling)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for filling)
  • 12 tablespoons milk, as needed for texture (for filling)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together softened unsalted butter, creamy peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until a dough forms.
  4. Roll dough into small balls (about 1 inch) and shape into ovals. Press each oval with a fork to create the classic crosshatch pattern. Sprinkle tops lightly with sugar.
  5. Bake in your preheated oven for 8–10 minutes until lightly golden. Allow cookies to cool completely on a wire rack.
  6. For the filling, beat together creamy peanut butter and unsalted butter until smooth. Gradually add in the powdered sugar, followed by the second portion of vanilla extract. Mix until creamy. Add milk one tablespoon at a time until you reach your desired filling consistency.
  7. Once cookies are cool, spread or pipe filling onto the flat side of one cookie and top with another cookie to create sandwiches.
