Marbled Chocolate Peanut Cookies image

This recipe came about by accident when I was making both my husband's favorite peanut butter cookies and my favorite chocolate cookies. I had two small portions of dough left over and decided to combine them into one flavor-filled cookie. -Shirley DeLange, Byron Center, Michigan

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but these cookies didn't turn out well. They were too flat and didn't have much flavor.

I tried this recipe but the cookies didn't turn out as expected. They were too dry and crumbly.
