Can you use chunky peanut butter instead of smooth?

In reply to Louise.

Wow! Thank you for your fabulous review, Louise. I’m so glad you loved them. Perhaps the slight change in ingredients affected the difference. It’s hard to say as there are so many factors that could contribute – beating time, difference in oven temps, temperature of ingredients etc. If you halve the sugar, I’m quite certain the cookies won’t turn out the same, as baking is a science, and the results are 100% dependent on the ingredients and the amounts used. They might turn out, I’m just not sure how different they’ll be with half the sugar.

I made this recipe exactly as written this morning except for using pecan nuts instead of peanut butter chips as I’m in the UK and you can’t get those. This was an amazing recipe and my whole family loved the cookies. They have a gorgeous buttery syrupy taste and the texture is fabulous. Thank you! I will be making these again and think it’s the prefect base to throw in raisins, dates, nuts, choc chips or basically any adding you have on hand. They did come out a tiny bit thinner than on your pic, would you have an idea what I may have done differently? All my ingredients were in date and I pre checked my oven temp with a thermometer. I also converted the recipe to metric before making.
My other query is would I be able to half the white sugar amount and the cookies still work out okay? I would like to make them just alittle healthier. Thank you again as this is the best new recipe I’ve tried in ages and is now a go to for me!

In reply to Morgan. Hmm. I wouldn't know, Morgan. I've only ever made them as cookies. Sorry I'm not much help there.

In reply to Karyn. I'm not sure where you'd find them if they're not in the baking aisle at your grocery store, Karyn. Hoping someone from your area might chime in with a suggestion.

In reply to sarah. The maple taste is subtle, Sarah. I think the maple extract is a great idea to increase the flavour!

How mapley (is that a word?) do these turn out? I see there isn’t much maple syrup in the batch. I want to try these because they sound great. I’m wondering if I put just a bit of maple extract in as well if that would amp it up a bit. I guess what I’m asking is: how much can you taste the maple the way it is written? Great idea for a cookie and I can’t wait to try them! Thank you for the recipe.

In reply to Amelia. Gah! That's my biggest fear when I'm typing out a recipe on my blog! Thank you so much!! I'll correct it now.

Directions give two different baking temperatures. Preheat to 325 degrees initially, last step indicates to bake at 350 degrees. I just noticed this after I started making the cookie dough so I’m going to use my gut instinct and go with 350 degrees. I’m not a baker by any means, but 350 seems to be the norm. Might want to correct for future novices, like myself.
