Ingredients:  
4 ½ cups flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
3 sticks (3/4 cup) butter
1 1/3 cups creamy peanut butter
2/3 cup granulated sugar
2 ¼ cups packed brown sugar
1/3 cup olive oil
3 large eggs, plus two large yolks
2 tablespoons vanilla extract
Directions:
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees 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 in a hand held. 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 ¼ cups of dough about two inches apart onto large ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten mounds with floured tines of a fork, making a cross hatch pattern into 2 ½ inch cookies (about ½ inch thick)

Bake, switching position of sheets halfway through baking, until slightly puffed and golden around the edges, about 30 minutes. Transfer cookies to a rack and cool.
