Here we are again…I am not sure I will be able to keep up this pace with weekly baking/blogging. Thankfully I made these when I did the apple crumble last week.
These were good, everyone enjoyed them…regular peanut butter cookies with a twist. They are not flattened and criss-crossed as your traditional cookie, but rather rolled in a ball and left alone. This makes them crispy on the edges but more cake-like in the center.
This recipe packs a strong peanut butter punch!! It not only has peanut butter, but you also add a cup of chopped peanuts as well. To me, the cookies seemed to be begging for chocolate, so I added some chocolate chips into the last part of the batter. Surprisingly, you couldn’t taste the chocolate at all…the peanut butter flavor was that strong!! I guess I should have left things alone haha!
Is this a keeper? 
These are a keeper! Love the idea of adding chocolate.
I want to eat those right now! They look so good!!
yummy! good to know about the chocolate, because i considered doing that, too (but then totally forgot!)
One thing I have learned from baking with my TWD friends in BFMHTY is that they are all wild about chocolate so I was not surprised that chocolate was going to be making an appearance with the peanut butter cookies! I could see it peeking out in your first photo…so cute. Your cookies look wonderful.
I wonder what it would taste like if you added only 1/2 the amount of peanuts and replaced with choc chips? I thought these were begging for chocolate as well!
It is tough keeping up with a weekly baking schedule. These we loved too.
