I make really good peanut brownies and I just use the edmonds recipe with extra cocoa added, think recipe says 2 dessertspoons, I use 2 really heaped dessertspoons so probably doubled

Roast yr peanuts first for a tastier bikkie. Sometimes I add melted dark chocolate to the mix for a more decadent taste. Mmm yummy.

This - Edmonds recipe.I just put spoonfulls on the tray (don't push down) and bake at 150 for between 20 - 25 mins.The slower cooking makes them crunchier.I use the same recipe for chocolate chip bikkies - replacing peanuts with chocolate chips - also make a nice fruity bikkie with choc chips, cranberries, sunflower and pumpkin seeds - just some of each.I only use cocoa in the peanut brownie ones.

My Peanut Brownie recipe is one my mum used to make when we were kids. I think it makes the best Peanut Brownies I have ever tasted:
It uses freshly roasted peanuts and wheatflakes, although i often substitute crushed weetbix and still very good.
