So easy! Couldn't believe it... Instead of baking chocolate, I just melted chocolate chips and dipped. My husband and kids LOVED these, as did the guests at a party where I served them. Will *definitely* make these again.

A friend at work made these and she used graham cracker crumbs instead of the chopped peanuts and milk chocolate chips instead of the 4 squares BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Baking Chocolate. They were delicious.

About the same but easier for me. Make your favorite peanut butter cookies with EXTRA crunchy peanut butter and add chocolate chips instead of dipping with chocolate.

These cookies look better than they taste. I made them a couple weeks ago and still have some left over. The next time I think I will follow my own peanut butter cookie recipe and then dip them in the chocolate and peanuts.

It appears that some ingredients are missing such as flour, salt and a rising agent. Otherwise they look good but I'm afraid to try them with only butter, peanut butter and egg!

I make these cookies without the chocolate for my grandaughter who has to have gluten free products. She loves them.

I substituted Splenda for half the sugar, and they still tasted great!!!

I told my husband I was gonna make some different cookies & he said "No, make those Peanut butter cookies dipped in choc." I laughed & said no problem. They are wonderful.

Family loved them. Instead of semi-sweet chocolate, use milk chocloate.

I've been making these flourless Peanut Butter Cookies for years...only the recipe I use calls for 1 cup of sugar. Dipping them in chocolate and peanuts is an excellent addition.
