Peanut Butter Cookies

I love classic peanut butter cookies!  These are great.  I think I originally got the recipe from the Better Homes & Gardens Cookbook, but I am not sure.

Peanut Butter Cookies

1 stick butter - softened
1 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 egg
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 1/4 cup flour

Beat the butter and peanut butter for 30 seconds. Add sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, and baking powder. Mix in egg and vanilla.  Mix in as much flour as you can with the mixer, stir in remaining flour. Shape dough into 1" balls. Roll in additional sugar to coat.  Place balls 2" apart on cookie sheet. Flatten by making crisscross pattern with the tines of a fork. Bake at 375° for 7-9 minutes.
