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.

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
