Peanut Butter Sriracha Cookies

Surprising yet delicious, for those people (...and you know who you are) who put hot sauce on everything!

  • Yields: Makes about 3 1/2 dozen cookies
  • Preparation: 45 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 cup (250mL) GAY LEA - Salted Butter, softened
  • 1 cup (250mL) crunchy peanut butter
  • 3/4 cup (175mL) granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup (175mL) dark brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup (50mL) sriracha sauce
  • 2 1/2 cups (625mL) all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp (5mL) baking powder
  • 1 tsp (5mL) baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp (1mL) salt
  • 1/2 cup (125mL) chopped crystallized ginger, optional
  • granulated sugar, additional for rolling

Instructions

  1. Beat butter with peanut butter, granulated and brown sugars until fluffy. Beat in eggs and Sriracha sauce until well combined.
  2. Stir flour with baking powder, baking soda and salt in a separate bowl. Mix into butter mixture, on low speed until combined. Stir in ginger (if using). Chill dough for 1 hour.
  3. Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Roll rounded tablespoonfuls chilled dough into 1 1/2-inch (4 cm) balls. Roll in sugar. Place on parchment paper-lined baking sheets. Flatten balls with a fork, making a cross-hatch pattern.
  4. Bake in batches for 12 to 13 minutes until edges just begin to brown. Do not overbake. Transfer to wire racks to cool.
  • For a traditional chewy peanut butter cookie, replace Sriracha sauce with 1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla extract and omit ginger.
  • Cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
