SOFT AND SIMPLE EXTRA PEANUTTY PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES



Soft and Simple Extra Peanutty Peanut Butter Cookies image

Very simple peanut butter cookies with added peanuts for extra peanutty flavor. No butter and the cookies are soft, not crispy.

Provided by Paul W.

Categories     Dessert

Time 30m

Yield 3 dozen, 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup raw peanuts, broken up and roasted in the oven
1 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 egg
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup milk (or milk-like product of your choice e.g. soy beverage, etc.)
1 cup crunchy peanut butter

Steps:

  • preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Break-up peanuts (I use a rolling pin and a plastic bag) and roast them on a cookie sheet in the oven for 8 minutes or so, stirring a couple of times. Be careful, they are easy to burn. Set aside.
  • Mix with fork in a bowl:.
  • 1 cup flour and 1/2 teaspoon baking soda.
  • Mix in another bowl: 1 egg, 1 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup milk (or whatever) then add 1 cup crunchy peanut butter and mix.
  • Add roasted peanuts and optionally 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips -- if you use these you might want to add another 1/8 cup sugar.
  • Mix the flour and egg mixtures together. Use a spoon to make balls and roll them between your palms to get them smooth and flatten them on a greased cookie sheet with a fork. Or, if you don't use chocolate chips you can push a large chocolate wafer-drop into the center of the ball to flatten it.
  • Bake 12 at a time as close to the center of the cookie sheet as you can, keeping away from the edges where the heat wraps around. Bake about 10 minutes (depending on your oven) and cool on a rack.

SALTY PEANUT CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Salty Peanut Chocolate Chip Cookies image

These cookies offer a terrific blend of salty and sweet, with the crunch of the peanuts lending a bit of texture to a chewy treat. They are also very easy to make and require only about an hour. But watch the timer - if they are overcooked, they will lose their chewiness.

Provided by Nigella Lawson

Categories     cookies and bars, dessert

Time 50m

Yield About 20 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 ounces (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter
1 packed cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 large eggs
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup semisweet chocolate morsels
1 cup salted peanuts

Steps:

  • Using a microwave oven or in a small saucepan, melt butter. Allow it to cool for about 5 minutes. In a medium bowl, using an electric mixer or by hand, beat together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Beat in vanilla, eggs, flour, baking powder and baking soda. Fold in chocolate morsels and peanuts.
  • Refrigerate bowl of cookie dough for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, heat oven to 350 degrees. Line a large baking sheet (or two) with a nonstick liner or parchment paper.
  • Shape chilled dough into fat disks about 2 1/2 inches in diameter and 1/2-inch thick (slightly less than 3 tablespoons of dough for each cookie). Place cookies on baking sheet 1 1/2 inches apart. Bake until golden brown around edges and cracked and chewy in middle, about 15 minutes. If using two sheets, switch position of sheets halfway through baking. Remove cookies from oven while they are still soft in center or they will lose their chewiness as they cool.
  • Allow cookies to rest on baking sheets for about 3 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool. When completely cool, store in an airtight container.

Tips:

  • Use creamy peanut butter: This will give your cookies a richer, more decadent flavor.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make your cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature: This will help them develop a crispy exterior and a chewy interior.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving: This will give them time to firm up and develop their full flavor.

Conclusion:

These peanutty chocolate cookies are the perfect treat for any chocolate or peanut butter lover. They're easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like your cookies soft and chewy or crispy and crunchy, these cookies are sure to please. So next time you're in the mood for a sweet treat, give these peanutty chocolate chip cookies a try!
