PEANUT BUTTER
SANDWICH
COOKIES
(Yield: 3 dozen)
1 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 cup peanut butter
2/3 cup sugar
2/3 cup firmly packed brown sugar
3 cups self-rising flour
6 tablespoons orange juice
Peanut butter
In a large mixing bowl, beat butter and peanut butter until well
blended. Beat in sugars until light and fluffy. Stir in flour
alternately with orange juice until well blended. Divide dough in
half; shape into 7-inch rolls. Wrap in plastic wrap; chill for 2
hours.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray cookie sheets with non-stick
vegetable spray.
Cut the dough into ¼-inch slices. Place half the slices
on prepared cookie sheets. Spread 1 teaspoon peanut butter on center
of each slice. Cover with remaining slices; seal the edges with the
tines of a fork.
Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from
cookie sheets; cool on a wire rack.
