Ingredients

30 servings

•

1 cup butter, softened
•

1 cup white sugar
•

1 cup packed brown sugar
•

2 eggs
•

1 egg yolk
•

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

•

1 (18 ounce) jar peanut butter
•

2 cups all-purpose flour
•

1 teaspoon baking soda
•

0.5 teaspoon salt
•

1 cup chopped peanuts

Instructions

In a large bowl, cream butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Add the eggs, yolks, and vanilla; mix until fluffy. Stir in peanut butter. Sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt; stir into the peanut butter mixture. Finally, stir in the peanuts. Refrigerate the dough for at least 2 hours.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a cookie sheet.
Roll dough into walnut sized balls. Place on the prepared cookie sheet and flatten slightly with a fork. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven. Cookies should look dry on top. Allow to cool for a few minutes on the cookie sheet before removing to cool completely on a rack. These cookies taste great when slightly undercooked.
