Preheat oven to 375℉. In large mixing bowl, beat butter and peanut butter on medium speed. Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, and baking powder. Beat until combined and scrape down the sides of the bowl. Beat in the egg and vanilla until combined. Add in as much of the flour as you can with the mixer and hand stir in any remaining flour. If necessary, cover and chill until easy to handle. Shape dough into 1-inch balls and coat in granulated sugar. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet and flatten with tines of a fork to make traditional crisscross marks. Bake for 7 to 9 minutes or until bottoms are lightly browned. Cool on the pan 5 minutes and transfer to cooking rack and let cool completely.Peanut Butter Cookies
