Ingredients:

1 tsp

Baking Soda

1 tsp

Salt (fine)

Directions:

1

Whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl

2

Combine the butter, peanut butter and brown sugar in another medium bowl

3

Beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes

4

Add the flour mixture and blend until just combined

5

Shape the dough into a log: Place it onto a piece of plastic wrap about 18 inches long

6

Use your hands to pat the dough into a log about 7 inches long and 2 inches around

7

Roll the plastic wrap around the dough

8

Twist both ends of the wrap, like a candy, and tighten both sides until the dough log is compact and tightly wrapped (this might cause the dough to shrink down to a 6-inch log instead of a 7-inch log, but that is okay)

9

Tuck the twisted ends under the dough and refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours

10

When ready to bake the cookies, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and arrange 2 racks in the middle of the oven

11

Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper

12

Remove the plastic wrap from the dough and use a sharp knife to slice the dough into 1/8-inch-thick rounds

13

Place the rounds about 1 inch apart on the baking sheets, about 12 cookies per baking sheet

14

Press a halved peanut in to the center of each cookie

15

If the dough is still very cold, it might crack slightly around the peanut

16

Simply use your finger to lightly push the dough back together

17

Bake the cookies until the edges are very lightly browned, 10 to 12 minutes

18

Halfway through cooking, rotate the baking sheets front to back and top to bottom

19

Cool the cookies slightly on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, and then transfer to a cooling rack and cool completely

20

Sandwich the cooled cookies between large scoops of your favorite ice cream
