Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Take one cup of the peanut butter and place it in 24 dollops on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Freeze the dollops while you prepare the cookie dough.

In a mixing bowl combine the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.

In a separate mixing bowl, combine the butter and 1 cup of both of the sugars with a stand up mixer or a hand-held mixer. Mix until the ingredients are light and fluffy.

Then add in the peanut butter and eggs. Mix until these ingredients are thoroughly combined.

Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually mix in the dry ingredients until they are just incorporated. Do not over mix.

Wrap each of the peanut butter dollops with the cookie dough.  Roll the cookie dough in the remaining granulated sugar and place on a baking sheet.

Bake for 10-12 minutes until the cookies are lightly golden brown.

Let the cookies cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet then move them to a wire rack to cool completely!
