Double Chocolate Chip Peanut Cookies With Oats

This is a very yummy cookie recipe, which is perfect for those "I am craving for something sweet but not too sweet"-days, if you know what I mean. =) They are crisp but with a soft centre and can be made gigantic, medium size or small depending on your personal preferences. Peanuts can be substituted by any other type of nut you like without the cookies losing flavour or texture.
