NOTES : Cookie Tips
If you oversoften butter or margarine, especially if it’s been
microwaved to the point of it being almost melted, your cookies
will spread a lot and be flat.

Make It Your Way
How about giving Chocolate-Covered Raisin-Chocolate Chip Cookies a
whirl? Just substitute chocolate-covered raisins for the
chocolate-covered peanuts.
