    Double Peanut Butter Cookies


    Source of Recipe


    by Millie, from LA Times/Culinary SOS

    Recipe Introduction


    AUTHOR’s NOTE: These cookies are great to bake for a party because you can make the dough ahead of time, then just pop it in the refrigerator. The filling is so simple: just a bit of peanut butter, and if you want, chocolate chips. Add three or four chips to the filling per cookie, and you'll have a wonderful chocolate addition.

    List of Ingredients




    1 1/2 cups flour
    1/2 cup sugar
    1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/2 cup shortening
    Peanut butter
    1/4 cup light corn syrup
    1 tablespoon milk

    Recipe



    1. Combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, shortening and one-half cup peanut butter. Mix together until it resembles coarse meal. Add the corn syrup and milk. Scrape the dough onto a sheet of plastic wrap and form into a long roll about 2 inches in diameter. Chill the dough until firm.

    2. Heat the oven to 350 degrees.

    3. Cut the dough into slices one-fourth inch thick. Place half of the dough slices about 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Dab the center of each slice with one-half teaspoon of peanut butter. Top with another slice of dough. Seal the 2 slices with the prongs of a fork. Bake until light golden brown but still soft to the touch in the center, 12 minutes.
