A very good chip cookie! I made one recipe with spiced peanuts and dark chocolate. Very good!
You can really taste the peanuts in this cookie. It seems to be missing something. The next time I make them I am going to increase the vanilla a little.
These are a favorite, but only make about half of what the recipes says.
These were really good. Common chocolate chip cookie though. The only negative is the dough gets really thick after a while- there is a lot of flour. It might be hard to handle, but other than that- it was a good classic cookie- the peanuts were a good addition.
Excellent, finally I found a good chocolate chip recipe.
My family and friends love these cookies. I get requests to make them on a regular basis.
In my youth, Salted Peanut Cookies were a favorite of mine. If I leave out the chocolate chips will the cookies bake as well? Would I need to compensate by adding more of some ingredient? M.T.
These cookies are the best. They are a favourite in our family. I get requests for the recipe all the time.
I love these cookies. They're my favorites. I have eated since now the traditional sweet chocolate cookies (superb, wonderful, it's a unique taste, yum yum), I want to try these ones as soon as possible!!!!
This seems like an excellent recipe. I love sweet and salty foods together.
