I made these cookies but with regualr 'storebrand' chocolate chips, and left out the chopped peanuts. Basically followed the recipe (didn't feel like chopping nuts and had no unsalted on hand) and they came out really good and I am picky about my cookies!

I thought these were pretty boring. There's no need to chop the peanuts it would be much easier to use chunky peanut butter. I wont be making these again.

I also used different chocolate chips (Nestle) and omitted the nuts (like the other poster, no unsalted on-hand). Great cookies, didn't miss the nuts and definitely if you're going to add them, make sure they are UNsalted, especially if you add the optional 1/2 tsp. of salt already.

The cookies were good and looked great, but lacked something tastewise. A little bland - not enough peanut butter flavor and could have used a few more chocolate chips. I omitted the peanuts - which may have helped. They did not need the optional salt.

the recipe alone wasn't all that impressive, but then i tweaked it by adding more peanut butter and on accident left out the baking powder but they turned out so smooth and yummy oh also did not use ghirardelli chips i used milk chocolate store brand chips. DELISH!

These are SO good! Made a few changes though. I used WowButter instead of peanut butter and ground up oatmeal to use instead of the regular flour called for. My son has many allergies and I am SO happy that this turned out!! Just allow to cool well on the pan before taking them off.

My changes: no chopped peanuts, natural peanut butter, swapped oil for butter and reduced it to 3 T, soy milk instead of milk (and doubled the amount). I used 60% cocoa solids chocolate chips. Yum! My kids kept begging for more.
