I was not sure if I would like this combo, but took them to volunteer work project and they did not last long.

I enjoy making a recipe my own by adding or changing the ingredients. I like to bake goodies for others to enjoy.

Great combination of flavors, everyone loved the cookies when I made them for a get together last week. Yesterday I made another batch but added mini chocolate chips and omitted the extra toffe bits on top and there were a hit also, give it a try.

They were very good but a little to rich tasting to me but everyone tried to eat them up as fast as possible, considering there is no butter in them I was a little surprised.

These are so yummy! I love them just the way the recipe is. But, for my most recent batch: I omitted the toffee bits, added crushed peanuts and slightly flattened then with a sugar coated fork as you would for traditional PB cookies. My peanut-butter-cookie-loving-boyfriend went crazy for them! Thank you Hershey's!! =)

I LOVE SWEETS!!! like everything to be organized when I bake - bowls, measuring cups, and ingredients all lined up. Then I clean as I go.

I add a package of milk chocolate chips to this recipe and they are hands down the best cookies I've ever eaten in my life!
