I added in some honey roasted peanuts for extra crunch and oats for texture.  They are not overly sweet but definitely packed with peanut flavor and crunch.

Spring fever has hit and the boys are counting the days until summer break.  Honestly so am I.  The last few weeks of school are packed with concerts, field trips, banquets and I’m not even counting graduation.  Homework holds no interest when there is so much daylight and time to spend outside.

I think I will have another cookie and pretend my schedule is free and clear.
