I am sure you have seen this recipe, it has been in all my cooking magazines over the last 2 months. Today, we finally got around to making them and I have to say, they are definitely worth the effort.
We used Kirkland brand Organic Peanut Butter and Hershey’s Kisses Dark and the results are cookies that are crisp and light, not too sweet, with a good chocolate-to-peanut butter ratio. It is also an ideal recipe for kids to help with, as there are 60 chocolates to unwrap!
