CHOCOLATE-SWIRLED PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
Our kids' most-requested cookies are peanut butter and chocolate chip, so I created this combination. The two doughs swirled together create a marbled pattern that's so pretty, the cookies don't need additional decorations! This is the best chocolate-peanut butter cookie you'll make! —Lori Kesinger, Baker, Montana
