Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone liners.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the butter, peanut butter, sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla, and mix well.
- Reduce mixer speed to low. Gradually add the flour mixture, mixing just until combined.
- Stir in the peanut butter chips, M&Ms, peanut butter cups, and peanuts.
- Drop the dough by 3-tablespoon portions onto the prepared pans, leaving about 2 to 3 inches between the cookies. Flatten the top of each cookie slightly.
- Bake 12 to 15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned.
- Cool on the pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Then transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- *As a general rule, I don't recommend using natural peanut butters for baking.
- **The weight measurement is just a ballpark. I quarter about 8 of the standard miniature peanut butter cups. There are smaller ones available that wouldn't need chopping.
