Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/4 Cup Gluten Free 1:1 Flour
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1 Egg
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla
  • 1/2 Cup Butter, softened
  • 1/2 Cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1/2 Cup Brown Sugar or 1/4 cup honey (I used sugar)
  • 1/2 Cup Creamy Peanut Butter
  • Granulated sugar (for rolling cookies in)
  • Reese's Peanut Butter Hearts

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • To a mixer, combine the butter and peanut butter. Mix on medium speed for 30 seconds.
  • Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar (or honey). Beat until combined, scraping the bowl occasionally.
  • Beat in the egg and vanilla.
  • In a separate bowl whisk together the flour, baking soda and baking powder.
  • Gradually add in the flour mixture to wet ingredients and mix until all are well combined.
  • If desired, cover and chill for about an hour or until dough is easy to handle. Feel free to skip this step if you're in a hurry, but it does make the dough much easier to handle.
  • Once dough is chilled, use a cookie scoop to shape dough into 1 1/2-inch balls.
  • Roll balls in granulated sugar to coat and place 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
  • Bake in a preheated oven for 7-9 minutes until bottoms are lightly browned.
  • Once cookies have come out of the oven, immediately insert a Reese's Peanut Butter Heart into the center of the cookie (being careful not to go all the way through).
  • Let cookies sit for ~5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool. Then enjoy!
