BRITTA'S PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F with racks in upper and lower thirds.
• Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
• Beat together butter, peanut butter, sugars, and oil with an electric mixer at high speed just until pale and creamy, about 2 minutes in a stand mixer or longer with a handheld. Add whole eggs, yolks, and vanilla and beat until just incorporated. Reduce speed to low, then add flour mixture in 3 batches, mixing until well incorporated.
• Scoop scant 1/4cups of dough about 2 inches apart onto 2 ungreased large baking sheets. Flatten mounds with floured tines of a fork, making a crosshatch pattern, into 2 1/2-inch cookies (about 1/2 inch thick).
• Bake, switching position of sheets halfway thourough baking, until slightly puffed and golden around edges, about 30 minutes total. Transfer cookies to racks to cool.
• Switch an oven rack to middle position and make more cookies with remaining dough on a cooled baking sheet.
