Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
½ cup shortening
½ cup crunchy peanut butter
½ cup white sugar
½ cup packed brown sugar
1 large egg
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, plus more as needed
¾ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
Directions
Cream shortening, peanut butter, and both sugars in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in egg until incorporated. Mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl; gradually stir into peanut butter mixture until combined. Cover and refrigerate dough for at least 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Roll chilled dough into walnut-sized balls and place 2 inches apart onto baking sheets. Flatten dough balls with a fork dipped in flour to form a crosswise pattern.
Bake in the preheated oven until edges are set, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
