In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, corn oil, egg, vanilla, and granulated sugar. Beat until smooth and blended.
Meanwhile, in another bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, confectioners’ sugar, and salt. Whisk gently to blend. Stir in the peanuts. Gradually add the flour mixture to the peanut butter mixture, working the dough only until it comes together. Do not overmix.
Drop the dough by heaping tablespoons onto a parchment-paper-covered baking sheet.
