Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for a few minutes.
Add the butter and stir until fully melted and combined.
Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Combine Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cookie crumbs and chopped peanuts.
Pour the chocolate mixture over the crumbs and peanuts, mixing well until everything is evenly coated.
Chill the Mixture:
Cover the mixture with cling film and refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm up.
Shape the Cookies:
Take the mixture out of the fridge and shape it into small balls or cookie shapes.
Place the cookies on a lined baking tray.
Prepare the Topping:
Roughly chop 40-50g of peanuts.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate and sunflower oil. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring each time, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Decorate the Cookies:
Dip each cookie into the melted chocolate or drizzle the chocolate over the cookies.
Sprinkle the chopped peanuts on top of the chocolate-coated cookies.
Final Chill:
Place the decorated cookies in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to set the chocolate.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve these cookies with a glass of cold milk or a hot cup of coffee.
They make a great addition to dessert platters for parties or gatherings.
Cooking Tips:
Ensure the chocolate mixture is well-cooled before combining with the cookie crumbs to avoid melting the butter too quickly.
You can use any type of cookies you prefer, such as digestive biscuits or graham crackers.
