PEANUT COOKIE BARS
I stir up a big batch of these easy bars on the stove top. These chewy no-bake goodies have big peanut taste. We're chocolate fans, so I sometimes add a bag of chips to make the bars an even bigger hit.-Gaylene Anderson, Sandy, Utah

PEANUT BRITTLE COOKIES
"The Love of Baking"is where this recipe came from. Once I didn't have eggs and so I used Eggs Whites and then put the whole bag of chocolate chips in the batter. I did not have any Skor Toffee Chipits packages on hand for the recipe but I had 4 Skor bars which I chopped up then got the bright idea to put them in my mini grinder not a good idea they were almost dust in a second. The cookie came out beautiful toffee crunch on the outside soft and chewy in the centre. I have never used unsalted peanuts only pecans. I forgot the nuts once altogether so I drizzled melted special dark chocolate on top of the cookie. I also dropped the batter by rounded tablespoons and I have rolled the batter in the palms of my hands the dropped cookie looks much more appetizing as the dropped cookie batter bakes with fissures that are slightly crispy and tastes better. Rounded tablespoon yield is 22 cookies if a rounded teaspoon 2 1/2 dozen.This cookie recipe has a consistent excellent taste and texture I can't imagine how good this cookie would be if you actually used what you were suppose too which I will one of these days I will as I love this cookie recipe!

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality peanut brittle for the best flavor.
- If you don’t have a food processor, you can chop the peanut brittle into small pieces with a knife.
- Be careful not to overmix the cookie dough, as this can make the cookies tough.
- Chill the cookie dough for at least 30 minutes before baking, as this will help the cookies hold their shape.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set, as overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before serving, as this will allow the flavors to develop.
Conclusion:
These peanut brittle cookie bars are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They’re sure to be a hit with your friends and family!
