Diets We seldom bake with peanuts or peanut butter in our house due to the nut-free policy in the schools. However, last Chanukah vacation we were home, and enjoying every minute of it. These cookies were made by my nine-year-old daughter, so I know they’re kid-friendly. A successful cookie in our house is one that has a delicious batter … that’s half of the fun! This one definitely qualifies.
1/2 cup (1 stick) non-trans-fat butter or margarine
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup Gefen Peanut Butter
1 egg
1 and 1/4 cups flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup roasted, shelled peanuts
1 cup Glicks Chocolate Chips or chunks
Tuscanini Coarse Sea Salt, for sprinkling
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius).
In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream the margarine or butter with the sugars until light and fluffy, about four minutes on high speed.
Lower the speed slightly and add the egg, flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
Mix until thoroughly combined and a batter has formed.
Add the peanuts and chocolate chips and stir with a spatula to distribute evenly.
Line two baking sheets with Gefen Parchment Paper and use a mini ice cream scoop to create even-sized mounds, about two inches apart.
Give each mound a small sprinkle of sea salt and bake for 10–11 minutes.
Cool and enjoy.

Double peanut chocolate chip cookies Can I sub the margarine with oil?
I am not sure how it will come out if you do. If you don’t like using margarine I would either use butter or for a parve option coconut oil or a non-hydrogenated ‘healthier’ margarine substitute
Missing step for this recipe (double peanut chocolate chip cookies) there is a missing step about the peanut butter there does not say what to do with it…..
