How to Make Basketball Team Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the peanut butter, butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, and baking soda.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. If using, stir in the salted peanuts along with the chocolate chips.
  6. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  7. If the dough is too sticky, add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it reaches a scoopable consistency.
  8. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Do not overbake!
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
