CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER MELTAWAYS
These little candies have become a staple in my annual Christmas baking, though they are so simple, all you need is a microwave! They literally melt i your mouth and will be adored by any chocolate+PB lover! You can easily change the quantities as the white candy, chocolate candy, and peanut butter are used in equal amounts. I use Wilton brand candy melts but you could probably use chocolate chips or almond bark as well.

- 2. note: you may also drop by rounded teaspoonfuls and flatten with fork then just sprinkle with sugar.
Tips:
- Use unsalted butter: This allows you to control the amount of salt in the cookies and prevents them from becoming too salty.
- Chill the dough before baking: This helps the cookies to hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much in the oven.
- Bake the cookies until the edges are just beginning to brown: Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before storing them: This will help them to keep their shape and prevent them from becoming too soft.
