Classic Peanut Butter Cookies

These are some of the best Pb cookies I have tasted. They are super soft and super yummy! My friend's husband found the recipe on allrecipes.com.

1 c. unsalted butter
1 c. crunchy peanut butter
1 c. white sugar
1 c. packed brown sugar
2 eggs
2 1/2 c. flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
*my friends husband added another 1/2 c. flour, 1/2 c. PB and 1 tsp vanilla which he saw on the website that somebody had done that and they were better*

Cream together butter, peanut butter, and sugars. Beat in eggs.
In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir into batter. Put batter in refrigerator for 1 hour.
Roll into 1 inch balls and put on baking sheets. Flatten each ball with a fork making a crisscross pattern. Bake in a preheated 375 degrees F oven for about 8 minutes or until cookies begin to brown. Do not over-bake.
