Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup heat treated all-purpose flour see notes below
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup your favorite mix-ins chocolate chips and peanut butter chips are our favorite

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, mix together the butter, sugars, vanilla extract, peanut butter, flour, and salt with an electric mixer until combined. Add in your favorite mix-ins and enjoy!

Notes

  • Heat-Treat Flour: Heating the flour will kill any bacteria present if theres any. To make raw flour safe to eat, place on a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees F for about 5-10 minutes. Just be sure it doesn’t burn.  You can also microwave the flour which would be the quickest and easiest way. Place the flour in a bowl and heat on high for 20-45 seconds. Each microwave is different, so please be mindful of the temperature.
