A very good recipe. I also added a few butterscotch chips I had on hand. I used 1/2 cup butter, and 1/2 cup butter-flavor crisco to keep them even chewier! Thanks, Nibblets!

These were really good! I made a half batch, but probably should have done the whole thing. I took them to work and they were gone. Next time I may put in a little bit of chuncy peanut butter, although my mother said not to, as they are just perfect already
