For Carla, no peanut butter can ever be too crunchy. Nor can any peanut butter cookie.

• 1 cup butter
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
• 2 eggs
• 1 tablespoon vanilla
• 1 cup extra crunchy peanut butter
• 3 cups flour
• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• Dash salt
• 3 Munch Peanut Bars, finely chopped, or about 1-1/2 cups of See’s Peanut Brittle

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cream butter and sugars in stand mixer until fluffy. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Add peanut butter and mix until well blended.

In separate bowl, mix flour, baking soda and salt. Add flour mixture to the butter mixture and blend well. Last, stir in the chopped peanut bars or brittle by hand.

Roll dough into 1-inch balls. Put balls on cookie sheet (which you have definitely lined with parchment paper). If you like, top each cookie with a sprinkle of chopped candy bar or sanding sugar. If you want chewy cookies, bake at 375 degrees for 8 minutes; if you want crispy, bake for 12 minutes.

Notes: yes, it’s worth ordering the peanut brittle from See’s

We make pretty awesome peanut brittle ourselves. That said, we’ve read that Warren Buffett bought then-struggling See’s Candies because he could not bear the idea of the company going out of business and losing access to theirs. We totally understand his market analysis: Laura and her son never say no to Butterscotch Squares, and Carla is addicted to Vanilla Nut Caramels and the Awesome Peanut Brittle Bars, which are covered with milk chocolate. Long live Berkshire Hathaway.
