Chunky Peanut Butter Cookies with White Chocolate Chips
Chunky Peanut Butter cookies with chopped nuts and white chocolate chips are an elevated version of the childhood standard. We love these cookies with cold milk, but they're great with a latte too!
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
Sift together 1½ cups all purpose flourr, 1 teaspoon baking soda and ½ teaspoon salt together. Set aside.
Combine in a large bowl ½ cup unsalted butter, ½ cup chunky peanut butter, ½ cup light brown sugar, ½ cup sugar, and 2 tablespoons honey. With a hand mixer on medium speed, cream the butter mixture together. Add 1 large egg and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract and mix to combine.
Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, slowly, until just combined and being sure not to overwork the dough.
Stir in 1 cup white chocolate chips and ½ cup peanuts.
Scoop the dough into rounded tablespoons and deposit 3 inches apart on the baking sheet. Create a hashtag # with a fork and sprinkle the tops of the cookies with a bit of sparkling sugar.
Bake for 5 minutes, then shift the baking sheet 180 degrees and bake for another 5-7 until browned and crisp.
Cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring cookies to a rack to finish cooling. Keep in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
