Just made this recipe. It is WONDERFUL. I didn’t have enough peanut butter so I cut the recipe in half but still used 2 pie crusts. I can’t imagine how it would be with the full recipe because there was still so much filling. I used a ravioli press instead of a glass. They came out too big. I will use a much smaller glass next time because the cookies are very rich and sweet. They go great with a cup of tea or a large glass of milk.
I will definitely make them again!
Any suggestions on if they can be frozen?
What a different cookie, I sure want to give these a try. Have a fantastic week and thank you so much for sharing with Full Plate Thursday.
Come Back Soon!

My dad is coming to visit and I think he has peanut butter running in his veins he loves it so much. I’m pinning this to make it for him when he’s here. Thanks for sharing at Inspire Us Thursday.
a whole stick of butter huh? looks rich (and delicious) what happens if you reduce the butter? also… have you ever added jelly or chocolate chips to the filling? If so, how’d it work for you.
SO tempted to try it this weekend!
