Well I cannot rate these as I did not even get a taste tester, however YOUare a big hit for the Annual Men's Fishing Trip. My job is too make over 10 doz cookies for the guys. I picked your recipe as the suprise recipe this year. It will now become a regular for the trips. M husband, BIL. and their friend all called me to say THANK YOU!!! and they love the suprise cookie. they of course get their regular choco chip and choco fudge macadamia, now yours is to be added to the trip. Keep more coming as I need a new suprise for next year. Simple to make, I did not have to freeze them or store for long. I did not use the powdered milk but did add in 1 tsp of vanilla. Made for AUS/NZ Swap 52 -
Just like the ones Mom made when I was growing up! -
These tasted great, but I added a cup of powdered milk and couldn't get them to stick together.

I had just had these cookies at church today and was going to look for a similar recipe. I tagged these in the Vegetarian Recipe Swap. They are so easy to make and firm up pretty nicely. I used Sucanat for sugar and didn't add in the powdered milk. They are a little soft, so I'm not sure how I will store these. Maybe in the freezer as the recipe suggests. I will probably add some vanilla next time also. Will save this. If you're a PB/Choc. lover, try these!

I am blessed with a wonderful dh and four fantastic, crazy children. I am a stay at home mom who works from son up till son down.
My favorite cookbook is not one that I cook with very often, it actually sits on top of my pantry propped up in an old basket. The cookbook was given to my grandmother just prior to her marriage to my grandfather and it has the family prayer and some recipes that my great-grandmother penned in her own hand inside. It is called All About Home Baking.
