When I was growing up, the local bakery made the best peanut cookies. One day, with a large tub of peanut butter cookie dough purchased from a school fundraiser on hand, I had the inspiration to recreate those goodies. These aren't exactly that cookie, but they are very good with a different texture than most peanut butter cookies and lots of chunky peanuts. Ingredients:
16 1/2 ounces peanut butter cookie dough, refrigerated type |
1 cup wheat flakes cereal, crushed |
1 cup salted peanuts, chopped |
2 tablespoons unbleached cane sugar |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°.
2. Break up cookie dough in a large mixing bowl.
3. Stir in the crushed Wheaties cereal.
4. Stir in the chopped peanuts.
5. Roll dough into 1-inch balls.
6. Place sugar in separate small bowl.
7. Dip balls in sugar.
8. Place balls of cookie dough 2-3 inches apart on baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
9. Flatten balls of cookie dough with the bottom of a glass.
10. Bake cookies for 10-12 minutes, until edges are browned.
11. Cool on wire rack.
12. Store in air-tight container.
