Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup smooth peanut butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup mini M&Ms
  • 1 cup chopped peanuts

Instructions

    1. Set oven to 350 degrees F. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder and baking soda. Whisk together well and set aside.
    2. In the bowl of a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add butter and peanut butter and mix until smooth. Add both sugars and mix on medium speed for 3 minutes, until light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla extract. Mix well, being sure to scrape the side of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Add flour mixture, M&Ms and chopped peanuts.
