Flourless Peanut-Chocolate Cookies (Martha Stewart) image

These cookies come from the marthastewart.com website and are really, really tasty. They are sweet, chewy, full of chocolate and nuts-the perfect treat. As written the cookies come out very sweet, so feel free to reduce the sugar amount or use a sugar substitute for part of it.

Time 22m

Yield 18 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup sugar (see note in introduction)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup creamy peanut butter (I used natural, no-sugar added, chunky pb)
1 large egg, lightly beaten
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (make sure theyre gluten and or or lactose free if thats a concern)
1/2 cup roasted peanuts, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a small bowl combine sugar, soda and salt.
  • In a large bowl, stir together sugar-soda-salt-mix, egg and vanilla until well combined. I used a wire whisk for this step.
  • Now add in the peanut butter, stir with a spoon til well combined and smooth.
  • Fold in chocolate chips and roasted peanut pieces.
  • With moistened hands, roll dough, about 1 heaping tablespoon at a time, into balls. Place 2 inches apart on two baking sheets.
  • Bake for about 12-14 minutes. Cookies will still be slightly soft, but firm up while cooling.
  • Allow to set on baking sheet for a couple of minutes and then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
