I couldn't fit a subject line that worked!
I just made peanut butter cookies. So, I have a bowl, paddle, cookie sheets, measuring cup, and spatula that have all had peanut butter on them. Normally, I'd first wash these with a paper towel and dishwashing liquid so I can throw away the initial residue. What should I do next?
I tried looking up articles and found one that said that dishwashing liquid leaves behind more peanutbutter allergins than other cleaning products ... when washing tables.
Dishwasher for most of the things. As for the cookiesheets the only think i can suggest for next time is lining them with tin foil, so that you can throw away the foil afterwards.
My daughter had a peanut allergy until last summer ... yeah!!! she outgrew it!!!
In saying that, I have a diswasher that has a santizer cycle so if for some reason I had food in the house that was questionable for my dd, I would wash in the sink with hot soapy water then run everything through the dishwasher on a hot cycle then a santizing cycle.
The best thing to do if you are concerned with cross-contamination is to have separate sets of everything ($$$) for using with peanut products only.
HTH

Or parchment paper. the cookies come out prettier when baked on parchment paper.
