Ingredients
1 cup
creamy peanut butter
3/4 cup
butter, softened
3/4 cup
granulated sugar
3/4 cup
firmly packed dark brown sugar
2
large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons
vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups
plus 2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon
baking soda
1/2 teaspoon
salt
1
(12-oz.) package semisweet chocolate morsels
1 cup
lightly salted peanuts
Parchment paper
Preparation
1. Preheat oven to 350°. Beat peanut butter, butter, and sugars at medium speed with a heavy-duty electric stand mixer until creamy. Add eggs and 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla, beating until blended.
2. Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl; gradually add to butter mixture, beating just until blended. Beat in morsels and peanuts just until combined. (Dough will look a little moist.) Drop by tablespoonfuls onto parchment paper-lined baking sheets.
3. Bake at 350° for 10 to 14 minutes or until desired degree of doneness. Remove to wire racks, and cool completely (about 15 minutes).
