  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup room temperature butter
  • 1 cup peanut butter I use creamy, but chunky would be amazing in these

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. Cream together the butter and peanut butter.
  • Add the sugars and beat until light and fluffy.
  • Add the egg, vanilla, and milk. Beat well.
  • Beat in the dry ingredients and mix until combined.
  • Mix in the milk chocolate and peanut butter chips.
  • Roll the dough into balls and roll in the sanding sugar.
  • Use the bottom of a glass and slightly flatten the bottom of the cookies.
  • I wanted to make these cookies festive for Valentine’s Day, so I added peanut butter M&Ms to tops of my cookies.
  • Press a few of the M&Ms in the tops of the cookies.
  • Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 10 to 12 minutes. Be careful to not overbake these.
  • Cool on the baking sheet for a minute, then let them cool completely on a cooling rack.
