Note
Ensure butter is softened to room temperature for proper creaming.
Use quick-cooking oats for the best texture; old-fashioned oats may result in a chewier cookie.
Coarsely chop the peanuts to ensure even distribution and consistent crunch.
The dough will be quite thick and crumbly; do not overmix after adding dry ingredients.
