  1. I was just getting ready to post this recpe -- found it in a newspaper a couple weeks ago and just made them this past weekend. WOW!!! The outside is a nice semi-crisp cookie -- but the center is this marvelous creamy filling that is devine!!! I know the next time I make them, I will be doubling the recipe. The only way anyone would be disappointed in these is if you don't like peanut butter or peanuts!!!
     
  2. This is the best peanut butter cookie I have ever had! I doubled the recipe and I am sure glad I did. The only hard part was rolling the peanut butter and powdered sugar as it kept "melting" in my hands. Next time I would just dust my hands with a little powdered sugar before attempting to roll it. I promise if you make this cookie you will not be disappointed!
     
  3. What a wonderful cookie! I can definitely see how it won the grand prize. Very different then your regular peanut butter cookie. Can't wait to make them again.
