1/2 c. margarine or shortening 1-1/4 c. sifted flour
1/2 c. sugar 1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 c. pack brown sugar 1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 c. peanut butter 1/2 pkg. (6 oz.) chocolate chips
1 egg (can use melting chocolate)
Cream shortening, sugar, brown sugar and peanut butter. Add egg. Sift dry ingredients together and blend in.
Roll dough 1/4" or thinner into oblong roll - a longer sheet makes better sized cookies (not too large). Melt chocolate chips over hot water (not boiling - that cooks and spoils texture.)
Spread chocolate over dough. Roll up and chill at least 1 hour. Cut into slices 1/4" thick. Bake at 375 deg. on ungreased cookie sheet about 12 minutes. Makes about 3 dozen cookies.
