Ingredients

3/4 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup peanut butter
1 1/4 cups packed brown sugar

1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 3/4 cups mini candy-coated chocolates

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, cream butter or margarine, peanut butter, and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. Combine flour, baking soda, and salt; blend into creamed mixture. Stir in 1 1/3 cups mini candy-coated chocolates.
  2. Shape dough into 1 1/4 inch balls. Place about 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Gently flatten to about 1/2 inch thickness. Place 7 to 8 of the remaining candies on each cookie; press in lightly.
