Gluten Free Chewy Peanut Butter Cookies

Every once in a while I like to take cookies over to my friends at the lumber yard - but one if the gals is on a strict gluten free diet. So this week, I came up with this combination of recipes for an awesome, chewy peanut butter cookie that has great flavor and is gluten free. I don't even miss the flour!

Ingredients:
1 cup smooth peanut butter*
1 cup crunchy peanut butter*
1 1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
3 large egg, lightly beaten
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Directions:
Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Line bake sheet with parchment paper.

Place all ingredients in a stand mixer bowl and mix on low. Using a cookie scoop, drop 1 1/2 tablespoon of dough on bake sheet. Flat cookie with a fork in criss-cross design. Bake cookies for about 10-12 minutes or until golden around the edges. Rest cookies on bake sheet for 2 minutes then transfer to cooling rack.

*I like the combo of the two. But you can make it with just one kind if you would prefer.
