Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 ½ cups unbleached all-purpose flour
⅓ cup rolled oats
1 teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup crunchy peanut butter
1 cup packed brown sugar
½ cup unsalted butter
¼ cup honey
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
5 (1 ounce) squares semisweet chocolate

Steps:

  • Mix flour, oats, baking soda, and salt in medium bowl.
  • Using an electric mixer, beat peanut butter, brown sugar, butter, honey, egg, and vanilla in large bowl until well blended. Stir dry ingredients into the peanut butter mixture in 2 additions. Stir in chopped chocolate.
  • Cover and refrigerate until dough is firm and no longer sticky, about 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter 2 heavy large baking sheets.
  • With hands, roll 1 heaping tablespoonful of dough for each cookie into 1 3/4 inch diameter ball. Arrange cookies on prepared baking sheets, spacing 2 1/2 inches apart.
  • Bake cookies until puffed, beginning to brown on top and still very soft to touch, about 12 minutes. Cool cookies on baking sheets for 5 minutes. Using metal spatula, transfer cookies to rack and cool completely. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Store in airtight container at room temperature.)
