Expert Tips

Have just crunchy peanut butter on hand? Go ahead and use it for a peanuttier, slightly bumpier cookie.

In a hurry? Use one pouch of Betty Crocker® peanut butter cookie mix instead. Immediately after baking cookies, be sure to top them with chocolate candies.

They taste great but for some reason like the others said they spread out a lot in the oven and came out flat like regular cookies that just happen to have a hershey kiss on top.
