Step 2
Roll the dough into small balls and place on the prepared baking trays, you should get about 28-32 cookies in total (you’ll need to bake these in batches, baking about eight cookies per tray).
-
Step 3
Use a fork dipped in flour, to press and cross into each cookie before baking the cookies in the preheated oven for about 16-18 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges. Allow to cool on the trays for a couple minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 4
To make the peanut buttercream place the butter and peanut butter into the bowl of the Artisan Stand Mixer fitted with the flat beater, and beat together for about 5 minutes or until smooth and creamy. Add the icing sugar, a little bit at a time, beating together until you have a light buttercream. Place the buttercream into a piping bag fitted with star piping tip and pipe onto half of the cookies, sandwiching together with a second cookie.
