A classic and divine combination of chocolate and peanuts. These buttery cookies simply melt in the mouth. Drizzle across the cookie top with some melted white chocolate if you are feeling sugar high and decadent.

Chocolate Peanut Crumble Cookies

adapted from Delicious
ToppingCookie
  • 30 g Unsalted butter
  • 40 g All purpose flour
  • 30 g Caster sugar
  • 60 g Unsalted peanuts, half roughly chopped
  • 115 g Unsalted butter
  • 115 g Caster sugar
  • 20 g Smooth peanut butter
  • 1 Large egg
  • 160 g All purpose flour
  • 20 g Dutch cocoa powder
  • 1/4 tsp Baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp Baking soda
  • 100 g 70% Semisweet chocolate, chopped
  1. Preheat the oven to 190C/375F and line two baking trays with parchment paper. Make the topping. In a large mixing bowl, rub the butter into the flour and sugar with your fingertips, until a soft, crumbly dough is formed. Add the chopped and whole peanuts, then set aside.
  2. Prepare the cookie dough by creaming cream the sugar, butter and peanut butter in a separate mixing bowl. Add the egg and beat again. Sift in the flour, cocoa, and baking powder and add the chopped chocolate. Mix well to form a soft dough.
  3. Roll the mixture into 20 small balls and divide between the baking trays, spacing well apart. Press each cookie down and top with a little crumble mix. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the crumble topping is golden, then remove from the oven and leave for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.

    These look fantastic, and I'd be adapting this to be gluten free. Cookies do pretty well with this kind of adjustment, as long as I remember what I've done with past recipes that really worked.

    We can't resist most things involving chocolate and peanut butter :) Will save this and maybe try this during the Christmas season.

  107. Buy Caviar15/12/11 15:00

    Thanks for this delicious recipe, and most of all for proper instructions. My first ever cookie batch was ruined, because the recipe didn't say I should wait between taking the baking tray out of the oven and putting the cookies on a cooling tray, so, because after 10 minutes I saw the cookies were still soft, I left them in for about 17-8 minutes, and the got totally dry. I ate them, but they were nowhere near proper cookies. Now I know it was okay for them to be soft because they harden while left sitting for 5 minutes.
    Thanks!
    Hugs, Flora
