Here are some unique cookies you’ll definitely want to try. To assemble, prepare both doughs. Form 1 1/4-inch balls with the peanut butter dough. Oil your hands and flatten the dough balls on a cookie sheet. Press a ball of oatmeal dough on top of the peanut butter dough. Bake at 350 degrees F. until golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes. Makes 5 to 6 dozen. (Note: These two recipes also work well as “singles.” Follow the same baking directions.)
