How to Make Peanut Butter Delight Cookies

1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Sheets

Adjust your oven rack to the middle position and preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two 18 by 13-inch rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and table salt.

3. Mix Wet Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine the dark brown sugar, creamy peanut butter, eggs, melted and cooled butter, honey, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.

4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture. Using a rubber spatula, stir until the dough forms. Stir in the chopped peanuts until evenly distributed.

5. Form and Flatten Cookie Dough

Roll the dough into balls, each about 2 tablespoons in size, and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them evenly. Gently flatten each dough ball to about 2 inches in diameter.

6. Bake Cookies

Bake the cookies one sheet at a time in your preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, rotating the sheet halfway through. The cookies are done when the edges are just set and beginning to brown.

7. Cool and Serve

Let the cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Variations

Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Cookies

Fold in semisweet or milk chocolate chips into the dough before baking.

Chocolate-Dipped Peanut Butter Cookies

Dip baked cookies into melted chocolate and let set.

Chocolate Varieties

Use white chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, or chopped dark chocolate bars instead of semi-sweet chocolate chips.

Crunch Factor

Mix in chopped peanuts, pecans, or walnuts and consider toasting them first for enhanced flavor.

Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies

Spread peanut butter or frosting between two cookies.
