Ingredients
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg, room temperature
tablespoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup corn starch
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
For the frosting,
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 1/4 cup powdered sugar
Melted peanut butter for drizzling
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In a standing mixer, beat the butter, peanut butter, sugar and browned sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add in the egg and vanilla and beat just until combined.
Add in the dry ingredients until fully combined. Divide into 6 equal parts, form into circles and place on a lined baking sheet and flatten out to a 1/2 inch.
Place in the oven and bake for 10 minutes. Don’t over bake. These cookies should not turn golden brown. Let cool to room temperature.
For the frosting,
Mix the butter and peanut butter until smooth and add the powdered sugar. Beat until a smooth frosting appears.
Smooth onto each cookie and drizzle on melted peanut butter. Enjoy!
