Notes: These were a Dodds family tradition. My grandmother always had a tin of them for the Holidays. This recipe was submitted by a family in California for the Parade Magazine Cookie contest and won first prize.
Rudy requested a peanut butter and chocolate bar cookie. I changed up this recipe by substituting 1 cup peanut butter for the shortening. I then substituted brown sugar with white sugar for the meringue. Finally, I topped with chocolate chips and peanuts that had been chopped in a food processor.
