Peanut Chip Cookies

Serves: 5 (gigantic cookies) or 12 (small)

Happy Thursday! I hope you are having a great week! My week has been so busy that I have barely had any time to bake! I am horrified! I have a feeling that this weekend I may be going on a baking binge because I am starting to go through withdrawals! That ‘balance’ that we were talking about in last months WIAW posts has quickly gone out the window! I think it’s time to get that back in line ASAP! :)

I wasn’t going to post this recipe until next week, but I had so many people comment, email and IG me about it, that I figured, why make you all hold out! I know you love gigantic cookies as much as I do, so why not share the wealth! ?

This recipe makes 5 really, really big cookies or 12 small ones! Please adjust the quantity based on what your nutrition needs are! I know not everyone can fit in a 200 calorie cookie, but if you want ONE big cookie, you could always make a single one and the rest small ones for treats! The choice is yours!

Yes, Yes, Yes!!! They are amazing!! After reading yesterday’s post about my peanut cravings lately you know this cookie was right up my alley! Peanuts and chocolate, yes please!! Soooo delicious! They are soft with the crunch from the peanuts and cacao giving them the perfect balance! Plus they are literally the size of my hand! So big..and for less than 200 calories, you can’t go wrong!! If you bought this cookie at the store it would clock in around 1200 calories, loaded with fat, sugar and yucky ingredients! No thank you! These are something you can feel good about eating! Don’t ask me how long they lasted…..with those ‘cookie cravings’ I have been having, let’s just say, not long! ?
