Chocolate lovers everywhere . . ."know" his and her chocolate chip cookie. We truly ARE chocolate chip cookie aficionados! What about peanut butter and chocolate? Hence the Reese's Peanut Butter Cup infatuation. I am a true fan of Reese's and anything peanut butter so we read Dorie's twists for flavor alterations and foraged ahead, bringing out the canister of chunky peanut butter and the Hoody lightly salted peanuts. 
Bittersweet chocolate, I was not sure. Sounds kind of sacrilegious to be messing with semi-sweet or milk chocolate/semi-sweet or milk chocolate/white chocolate but Tuesday with Dorie's group IS all about trying new variations of old favorites AND opening any kitchen fears by baking outside comfort zones. 
Jumping in head first, we poured Ghirardelli bittersweet chocolate chips into the peanut butter cookie dough; then the crushed, lightly salted peanuts.
LARGE scoops of cookie dough were placed on the silicon and baked.
As the cookie barely cooled, we cracked our first one. Melted chocolate oozed out.
