Ingredients
  

  • 1 ¼ Cup All-Purpose Flour
  • ¾ Cup Brown Sugar
  • ½ Cup Creamy Peanut Butter
  • 8 tablespoon Unsalted Butter (room temperature)
  • 1 Large Egg (room temperature)
  • 1 Tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
  • ¾ teaspoon Baking Soda
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • 1 Cup White Chocolate Chips (plus extra to sprinkle on top)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine flour, salt and baking soda and whisk to combine. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine room temperature butter and sugar and cream together on medium speed until light and fluffy (about 4-5 minutes).
  • Add peanut butter and continue mixing on medium speed for about 2 more minutes. The peanut butter should have lighted in color and the mixture will be light and fluffy.
  • Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula and add the egg and vanilla.
  • Continue to mix on low speed just until the egg and vanilla are incorporated (about 30 seconds)
  • Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl again and slowly add the flour, salt and baking soda while mixing on low speed. Scrape down the sides and continue mixing as needed until all the flour has been incorporated.
  • Remove the bowl from the mixer and fold in the white chocolate chips with a spatula.
  • Using a one and a half tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop out the dough and roll into a ball with your hands. Slightly flatten the dough into a thick flying saucer/disk shape and place on the baking sheet 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and sprinkle more white chocolate chips on top of the cookies while they are still warm.
  • After ten minutes remove the cookies with a spatula and transfer to a wire rack to cool.
