Peanut Butter Surprises
"This is a cookie recipe my family has been making for Christmas, most of my life. It came from a Christmas Craft and Recipe book. When I make this I add a little extra flour, half the salt, and bake the cookies for less time than called for... 8-11 minutes depending on the oven. This makes soft chewy cookies."
