I wanted to make a puffy peanut butter cookie and this recipe was perfect! I coated them all in sugar, per Rob’s request. Then I used a couple in smores and dumped melted chocolate on two others. Boom!

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup shortening
• 1/2 cup peanut butter
• 1/2 cup sugar

• 1 egg
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 3/4 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 1/4 cups flour

Directions

Cream shortening, peanut butter, sugar and brown sugar. Add egg. Stir in dry ingredients. Scoop out 2 tbs dough and pile mounds high. Roll in sugar. Chill. Preheat oven to 350. Stagger on cookie sheet lined with nonstick baking liners. Bake 9 minutes. Cool.

Melt 1 cup Hershey kisses or chocolate chips w 1 tsp oil in 45 second increments until you can stir melted. Drizzle on cookies.
