Recipe Tips

Variation
Prepare recipe as directed, except use the round NUTTER BUTTER Cookies, and omit the orange sprinkles. Refrigerate 10 min. or until semi-sweet chocolate is firm. Melt 2 oz. orange candy coating wafers as directed on package. Use to decorate cookies to resemble basketballs. Let stand until orange coating is firm.
Special Extra
Microwave 1 oz. white chocolate and 1-1/2 tsp. peanut butter in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 30 sec.; stir until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is well blended. Drizzle over tops of cookies before adding sprinkles. Alternately, melt 2 Tbsp. peanut butter chips. Use instead of the melted white chocolate/peanut butter mixture.
Substitute
Prepare using your favorite flavor of jam, preserves or jelly.
