In this video, Paul shows how to bake his delicious and moreish Peanut Butter Cookies. Full instructions and ingredients are below...

160g butter, softened
275g smooth peanut butter
135g caster sugar
135g soft light brown sugar
2 medium eggs
250g plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
50g salted peanuts, roughly chopped

In a large bowl, cream the butter, peanut butter and sugars together using an electric whisk until smooth and fluffy. Mix in the eggs, one at a time.

Add the flour with the baking powder, and chopped peanuts. Mix well to form a stiff dough..

Tip onto a large sheet of baking paper or cling film and roll the dough into a cylinder, 28cm long and 9cm wide. Wrap in the paper or cling film and place in the fridge for at least 2 hours to firm up.

Heat your oven to 170°C/Fan 150°C/Gas 3 and line 2 baking trays with baking paper.

Unwrap the dough, cut into 16 equal slices and place on the prepared trays. Bake for 14–16 minutes until the cookies are golden, risen and slightly cracked on the surface – they will still be soft when you remove them from the oven.

Leave the cookies to firm up on the tray for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
