Directions
For the chocolate bars, you can use 20, 1 x 2 inch size halved.
Beat peanut butter, margarine or butter, and shortening in a large mixing bowl on high speed for 30 seconds.
Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, and baking soda and beat until combined.
Beat in eggs and vanilla until combined.
Beat in as much of the flour as you can with the mixer on medium, scraping sides of bowl occasionally. Stir in any remaining flour with a spoon.
Insert a wooden stick into each candy bar piece.
Form about 2 tablespoons dough into a ball shape around each candy bar piece, making sure the candy is completely covered.
If desired, roll ball in decorative candies, nuts, or colored sugar, gently pushing candies or nuts into dough.
Place cookies 2½ inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake in 325℉ (160℃) oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden and set.
Cool on cookie sheet 5 minutes. Remove cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
If desired, drizzle or frost the cookies with melted chocolate or frosting.
