Ingredients: 3/4 cup brown sugar; 1/2 cup white sugar; 1/2 cup margarine or 1/2 cup butter; 1/2 cup shortening; 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla; 1 egg; 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour; 1 teaspoon baking soda; 1/2 teaspoon salt (I never use); 1/2 cup miniature chocolate chip; 1/4 cup chunky peanut butter; 1 ounce unsweetened chocolate, melted, cooled

Servings: persons

3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup margarine or 1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup shortening
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 egg
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt (I never use)
1/2 cup miniature chocolate chip
1/4 cup chunky peanut butter
1 ounce unsweetened chocolate, melted, cooled

1
Heat oven to 375 degrees.
2
In large bowl cream brown sugar, sugar, margarine and shortening until light and fluffy.
3
Blend in vanilla and egg.
4
Stir in flour, baking soda and salt (is using) and mix well.
5
Divide dough into 3 parts. Place in small bowls. (Note - I make two of the parts a little bit larger than one as you will be adding 1/4 cup peanut butter to it and there always seems to be more of that mixture left at the end otherwise).
6
Add chocolate chips it one part, peanut butter to second (smaller portion) and melted chocolate to the third.
7
Refrigerate dough for about 30 minutes for easier handling.
8
Shape approximately 1 tsp of each dough into a ball. To form each cookie place one of each flavour balls cloverleaf style onto an ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until set. Let cool for a few minutes before carefully removing from cookie sheets. This is important as these cookies can be fragile at first.
