1

Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, mix brown sugar, butter, vanilla and eggs with spoon. Stir in flour, oats, baking powder and baking soda. Stir in cereal and peanuts.
2

Shape dough by rounded teaspoonfuls into balls. On ungreased cookie sheets, place balls about 2 inches apart. Flatten slightly with greased bottom of glass dipped in sugar.
3

Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until set. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks.

If you bake cookies often, having several cookie sheets is convenient. As one sheet of cookies is baking, you can get another one ready to go. Let the cookie sheets cool a few minutes between bakings, or the cookie dough will start to spread before it’s placed in the oven.
Each cookie offers 1/2 serving of whole grain.
