I tried this recipe twice. The first time, I followed it to the letter. The second time, however, I added a half cup (1/2 cup) Smooth Peanut Butter. Not only did this make the cookies fantastic, but made them chewy rather than crunchy. Best with a glass of nice cold milk to dunk.

Great greens

Stock up on Swiss chard to get a dose of heart-healthy fiber, bone-building vitamin K and more. Substitute it for spinach in any recipe.
