Cookies:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar (plus extra for topping)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Filling:

  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1–2 tablespoons milk (as needed for texture)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven: to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cream ingredients: In a large bowl, cream together butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add eggs and vanilla: Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients to form a dough.
  5. Shape cookies: Roll dough into small balls, shape into ovals, press with a fork, sprinkle with sugar, and bake.
  6. Prepare filling: Beat together peanut butter and butter until smooth. Add powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk gradually for the desired consistency.
