You want the mixture to be pale and airy, which will give you a nice, tender cookie. If you don’t have an electric mixer, you can do this by hand, but it will take a bit longer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this gluten-free?
Yes, you can! Simply substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend. I recommend using a blend that contains xanthan gum, as this will help to bind the ingredients together and give the cookies a better texture. You may need to add a bit more liquid to the dough, as gluten-free flours tend to absorb more moisture. Start with a tablespoon of milk or water and add more as needed until the dough comes together.
Can I use a different kind of nut butter?
Absolutely! Feel free to experiment with different nut butters, such as almond butter, cashew butter, or sunflower seed butter. Keep in mind that the flavor and texture of the cookies may vary depending on the type of nut butter you use.
Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes, you can! You can make the dough ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Just let it come to room temperature for a few minutes before rolling it into balls and baking. You can also bake the cookies ahead of time and store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
My cookies spread too much. What did I do wrong?
There are a few reasons why your cookies might have spread too much. First, make sure that your butter is softened but not melted. Melted butter will cause the cookies to spread. Second, avoid overmixing the dough, as this can develop the gluten and result in a flatter cookie. Third, try chilling the dough in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before baking. This will help to firm up the dough and prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
Can I add chocolate chips to the dough?
Of course! Feel free to add chocolate chips, sprinkles, or any other toppings you like to the dough. I recommend using semi-sweet chocolate chips for a classic flavor, but you can use any kind of chocolate chips you prefer.
