Instructions
1
|
Line two baking sheets with silicone baking mats or parchment paper. Set aside.
2
|
Place the sugar for coating the dough balls in a small bowl. Set aside.
3
|
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
4
|
Combine the softened butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and honey in a large mixing bowl. Using a hand mixer with a whisk attachment, mix on medium speed until smooth and combined, about 1 minute.
5
|
Add the egg and vanilla extract. Continue to beat on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 30 seconds.
6
|
Turn the mixer to low, and add the flour, baking soda, and salt to the bowl. Beat the mixture until all ingredients are combined and a firm dough forms, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
7
|
Form the cookie dough into 20 balls, rolling each in the reserved sugar before placing on baking sheets. Slightly flatten the tops of each ball.
8
|
Bake the cookies on middle and upper-middle racks until they are cracked on top and slightly golden brown at the edges, 11-13 minutes.
9
|
Check to see that cookies are done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.
10
|
Allow cookies to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to cooling racks. Serve and enjoy. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for 2 days, or in the refrigerator for 5 days.
