Combine well and turn out on a lightly floured surface. Place a piece of plastic wrap or wax paper on top of dough and then roll out dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Remove the plastic wrap or wax paper and score dough into 4 x 3-inch rectangles. Spritz the top of the rectangles with water and sprinkle chopped peanuts over. Press the chopped peanuts in the dough with the palm of your hand. Bake at 325 degrees F for 50-60 minutes.
