Time 1h30m

Yield 48

Number Of Ingredients 11

½ cup golden vegetable shortening
½ cup packed light brown sugar
¼ cup white sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 egg
1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 (10 ounce) package peanut butter chips, divided
1 cup toffee baking bits (such as SKOR®)
¾ cup unsalted peanuts

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Beat shortening with brown sugar, white sugar, and vanilla in a bowl until creamy. Add egg; beat until smooth. Add flour, baking soda, and salt; mix until incorporated. Fold in 1 cup peanut butter chips, toffee bits, and peanuts. Drop batter by the rounded tablespoonful about 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake cookies in the preheated oven until deep golden brown and just set in the middle, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool on sheet for 3 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
  • Heat remaining peanut butter chips in a microwave-safe bowl in the microwave until melted, about 45 seconds. Drizzle over cooled cookies.
