SALTY-SWEET PEANUT BUTTER SANDIES
This modern classic is reverse-engineered from a cult cookie at City Bakery in Manhattan. They are saltier, richer and tangier than the usual crisscross rounds, thanks to updated ingredients like sea salt, cultured butter and brown sugar. And like any good "sandy" cookie, they have a soft, crumbly texture that melts away on first bite.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or nonstick liners. In a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugars until smooth and fluffy, at least 3 minutes. Add the peanut butter and eggs, and mix. Add the flour and salt and mix just until well combined, with no white flour showing.
- Using a small cookie scoop (about 2 teaspoons capacity), scoop dough onto prepared pans. The tops will be rounded but craggy. The cookies will not spread much or change shape when they bake, so they can be placed quite close together, but leave room for air circulation so they can brown.
- In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons sugar with 1 tablespoon salt. Sprinkle each cookie lightly with sugar-salt mixture, getting it into the crags and crannies. Bake 12 to 15 minutes, until cookies are set and golden-brown. Carefully lift or slide off baking sheets and cool on racks. Store in layers separated by parchment paper, in airtight containers.

Steps:
- Line an 8x8 or 9x9 inch baking dish with aluminum foil and spray with non-stick cooking spray. (I used the butter wrappers to grease but did not put any foil in the pan).
- In the bowl of a stand mixer or with an electric mixer, beat together 3/4 cup peanut butter, butter, and vanilla extract until creamy.
- Add confectioners' sugar and brown sugar.
- Slowly beat sugars into peanut butter until well-combined. Add 1 1/2 cup pretzels and beat to combine.
- Press mixture into the bottom of prepared baking dish.
- In a microwave safe bowl, melt together chocolate chips and remaining 1/4 cup peanut butter.
- Stir until smooth. Pour over the top and smooth with a spatula. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup of crushed pretzels. Press down lightly.
- Refrigerate for at least 3 hours before cutting into bars and serving.
Tips:
- Use fresh, unshelled peanuts. This will give your peanut treat the best flavor and texture.
- Roast the peanuts before using them. This will bring out their natural oils and make them more flavorful.
- Use a variety of sweeteners. This will give your peanut treat a more complex flavor.
- Don't overcook the peanuts. This will make them tough and chewy.
- Let the peanut treat cool completely before serving. This will help it to set and firm up.
Conclusion:
Salty sweet peanut treats are a delicious and easy-to-make snack that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are a good source of protein, fiber, and healthy fats. These treats are also a good way to use up leftover peanuts. With so many different variations to choose from, there's sure to be a salty sweet peanut treat that everyone will love.
