Heath Bits Peanut Butter Cookies

From the back of the Heath Bits bag

My family LOVES cookies and this is one of their favorites. For a while I was making them ALL the time! Now we’ve slowed down a bit but I still make them often.

Ingredients:

½ cup shortening
¾ cup creamy peanut butter
1-1/4 cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 egg
1-1/2 cups flour
¾ teaspoon baking soda
¾ teaspoon salt
1-1/3 cups (8 oz. package) Heath Milk Chocolate Toffee Bits, divided

Directions:

Beat shortening, brown sugar, peanut butter, milk and vanilla in large bowl until well blended. Add egg; beat until blended.

Combine flour, baking soda and salt. Gradually beat into peanut butter mixture. Stir in 1 cup toffee bits; reserve remainder for topping. Drop by heaping teaspoon (I use my cookie scoop) about 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. Top each with reserved toffee bits (I use a spoon to press down center of dough and sprinkle toffee bits there). Bake 7 to 8 minutes or until set. Cool 2 minutes. Cool completely. 3 or 4 dozen.
