Peanut Butter Cookies

I didn't have the exact ingredients,I used Smooth Peanut Butter,Caster Sugar instead of Granulated Sugar - and instead of unsalted Peanuts that would have needed too be finely chopped,I used Walnuts - I broke them up with my Fingers,the Shop bought Peanut Butter is the Peanut element,have made these Peanut Butter Cookies before with the full ingredients,I got unsalted Peanuts from the Shop Waitrose.I made double the amount of Peanut Butter Cookies,the Walnuts (that were not fresh) amounted to about 100g when halved.The Calories for the ingredients I am about too mention amount to just over 4.000 calories and this is with Walnuts not Unsalted Peanuts,the Nut bits give a nice texture and a added Nut flavour.
