I made this recipe and modified it just a bit.... I made a double batch and added 1 cup of brown sugar and 1 cup of white sugar and added 2 cups of powder sugar to it.... Also I used crunchy peanut butter and added white chocolate chips to them.... The powder sugar keeps the cookies softer for a few days and makes them far better I think.... They come out exellent, a soft and tasty little cookie for the hollidays....
