Time 36m

2 cups sifted flour
1 teaspoon baking soda

  • Mix in the rest by hand to form a stiff dough.
  • Refrigerate 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the filling (I am told that one can easily melt chocolate chips in a microwave, but I have not tried it. If you know how to do it, have at it!) Melt chocolate over hot (NOT BOILING) water, add butter.

  • Roll each half into a 8x10 inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface.

  • Bake 6-8 minutes or until lightly browned.
  • Let cool for a few minutes on sheet, then cool on wire rack.

Nutrition Facts : ServingSize 1 Serving

Tips:

  • For softer cookies, use light brown sugar instead of granulated sugar.
  • To make the cookies more chewy, chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking.
  • For a more intense peanut butter flavor, use natural peanut butter.
  • If your peanut butter is too thick, you can thin it out with a little milk or cream.
  • For a fun twist, try adding chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or dried fruit to the dough.
  • Don't overmix the dough, as this will make the cookies tough.
  • Be careful not to overbake the cookies, as they will become dry and crumbly.
