  • Preheat the oven to 148°C.
  • Cut the peanuts in half and toast them on a baking sheet until they turn golden, about 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool at room temperature.
  • In a food processor bowl with a blade, chop the peanuts into pieces about 3 cm. Set aside.
  • Melt the semi-sweet chocolate over medium heat in a double boiler. Cover with plastic wrap and let it warm for 6 or 7 minutes. Remove from heat and stir until smooth. Keep at room temperature until used.
  • In a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, mix the peanut butter, brown sugar, and cream together. Beat on low speed for 2 minutes, then on high speed for 2 and a half minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and beat on high speed again for 2 more minutes. Add the egg and beat for 1 minute. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
  • While continuing to beat on high, add the vanilla extract and beat for 30 seconds. Add the melted chocolate and beat for another 30 seconds. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and beat again for 30 seconds more. Add the chocolate chips, flour, baking soda, and chopped peanuts, and mix on low speed for 45 seconds. Remove the mixer from the bowl and continue mixing with a rubber spatula.
  • Divide into portions of about 2 tablespoons to form a single portion, approximately 3 centimeters in diameter. Place the 12 balls of dough on a baking sheet. Using the back of a fork, gently press each ball of dough to flatten them slightly. Place the cookies in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 22 minutes.
  • Let the cookies cool for 3 or 4 minutes on the baking sheet and then transfer them to a rack to cool completely.
