I have been making this recipe for years and it has always turned out wonderful. I do substitute butter flavored shortening for the butter. I have also made these cookies using chopped up Snickers candy bars and they are equally delicious!!!

next time I will use 3 changes. shortening (do they mean Crisco in the blue can?), parchment paper and cake flour. my cookies were as flat as a wimmpy pancake and do not look great enough to give someone as a gift.

Great cookies! Make big dough balls cause small ones make the dough stick to the pan and burn when you bake them

Yum! A new favorite cookie at our house and one I'll make again and again. Followed the recipe exactly and had no problems. Love this moist, chewy, wonderful cookie!

Oh, a thought--I used stick oleo instead of butter, which I think spreads more than oleo. Also, some recipes for peanut butter cookies call for NO flour, and they are good, so 1 cup is fine. Just have oleo at room temperature so that it is not cold, but do NOT melt it. Be sure to measure carefully. Extra sugar can make them more liquid. Be sure you have chunks of candy bar, not all tiny pieces. If they are too small they will melt and not stay in chunks. Good luck!
I've made these cookies twice. The first time was not so great, but I learned that you do not flatten the balls like for peanut butter cookies and you cook them until browning around the edges. Then leave them on the pan and let cool 5-6 minutes on the rack, then you can remove them from the pan with a spatula easily. They are scrumptious! I like them better than any other cookie, now! I only used the 1 cup of flour and had great results.mtnest

I'm just a 60 year old want-to-be baker so take this for what it's worthI tried this recipe and with 1 cup of flour my cookies were a disaster.I did it again with 2 cups of flour and they came out much better, still nice, moist and soft days later. I couldn't even keep them together when trying to form the dough into 1 1/2" balls with 1 C of flour.Your thoughts?
