Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Preheat the oven to 350℉ and line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.
In the bowl of a mixer add the room temperature butter, both sugars and the peanut butter, cream together for 3 minutes (should become lighter in color and become smooth and creamy). You can also do this with a hand mixer, also on medium high speed for 3 minutes.
Combine the water, oil and baking power to a small container, stir to combine and add to the peanut butter mixture, add the vanilla. Mix on medium high for 1 minute.
Add the flour to the peanut butter mixture, mix on medium low speed just to combine.
Scoop 2 tablespoon size balls, roll between your palms to smooth out and place on the cookie sheet, don't forget to put the crisscross mark on each cookie, dipping your fork in water can help with this.
Bake the cookies for 12 to 14 minutes, remove from the oven and let sit on the pan for 5 to 10 minutes, then place them on a cooling rack to completely cool.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature.

Notes

**The water, baking powder and oil combine to create the egg replacement in this recipe. This particular combination helps give the cookies that wonderfully crispy outside. Do not combine the ingredients until you are ready to add them to the cookie batter.
