Cloverleaf Cookies

1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup shortening
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup chunky peanut butter
1 square (1 ounce) unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled

In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter, shortening and sugars until light and
fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt;
gradually add to the creamed mixture and mix well. Divide dough into thirds.
Add chocolate chips to one portion, peanut butter to another and melted chocolate
to the third portion. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or until firm. Roll
1/2 teaspoonfuls of dough into balls. For each cookie, place three balls (one of
each dough) with edges touching on ungreased baking sheets to form a cloverleaf.
