This is a great tasting combination, but the recipe is a little incomplete. I was not sure if I should pour the hot peanut butter mixture over the cooled cookie crust or the hot cookie crust. I decided to wait until the cookie cooled. It worked fine. Would probably work fine on a hot crust too. How do you do it? I used to make something called Christmas chuckles which was just the peanut butter, butterscotch mixture with a bit more cornflakes and dropped into clumps on wax paper. No cookie crust. I like the idea of having it on a crust. It is like a double treat. Thank you for posting.
