Warm, soft, gooey peanut butter cookies with honey roasted peanuts and chopped up peanut butter cups. So, so good!
I saw a recipe for these peanut butter cookies a few years ago and I knew immediately that I wanted to make them. Peanut butter. Honey roasted peanuts. Peanut butter cups. Yes, please!
Well, fast forward a few years, and I finally got around to making them. I'm glad I did. They are so yummy! I wasn't sure about the honey roasted peanuts initially, but they add a good texture to the cookies.
If you like peanut butter and chocolate, these are the cookies for you.
