A Couple of Cookie Recipes





 
Here is another cookie creation to share. It is a double chocolate chip cookie with a peanut butter cup surprise. My husband brought home candy on sale (at Wal-Mart?) and got me a package of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. So what I did was follow the Nestle Toll House Cookie recipe, added 1/3 cup of cocoa, put a ball of the finished dough on the cookie sheet, added a quarter of the peanut butter cup in the center, and added more dough on top to cover the candy. Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes. Yum! this turned out really well!


Next I have another version of the Healthy Cookie recipe. I was out of half of the ingredients I originally used so here is another version. It is a Peanut Butter Graham flourless cookie. My are always skeptical whenever I "Just Wing" a new recipe, but it turned out to be a good cookie.  Here is the recipe.

Ingredients:
2 Cups Oatmeal
1 Cup Brown Sugar
1/4 Cup Peanut Butter
1/4 Cup Graham Cracker Crumbs
1/2 Cup Wheat Germ
1/2 Cup Peanuts
1/2 Cup Butter
1/2 Cup Shortening

Cream butter,shortening, and brown sugar. Add remaining ingredients. Drop by round teaspoonfuls, press down slightly. Bake 8-10 minutes at 350 degrees.
