Ingredients
-
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup golden brown sugar, firmly packed
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup quick-cooking oats
1 (12 ounce) package chocolate chips
1 cup dry-roasted unsalted peanuts, chopped
Preparation
-
Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F.
Grease 2 baking sheets.
In large mixing bowl with electric mixer, mix granulated sugar, brown sugar, peanut butter and butter until creamy (about 1 minute).
Mix in eggs and vanilla.
In a medium bowl, stir together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt.
Gradually add to batter, mixing on low speed until blended.
Mix in oats, then chocolate chips and peanuts.
Drop 2 heaping tablespoons of batter onto prepared baking sheets about 3 inches apart.
Flatten slightly into cookies about 2 1/2 inches across and 1/2 inch thick.
Bake for 12 to 14 minutes or until tops are barely set when lightly pressed and color is golden.
They will feel underdone but will firm up as they cool.
Let stand 5 minutes and remove to racks to cool completely.
