Janet Groene's Honkin'
Huge Peanut Butter Cookie
Whip up this giant cookie in camp without an electric mixer or oven. Use a wooden spoon to mix, and bake it in a skillet, preferably a heavy, 12-inch, cast aluminum skillet with a tight lid. An iron skillet works OK over a grill or other large heat surface but it develops hot spots when used over a small, campstove flame.
3/4 cup peanut butter, chunky or smooth
2 eggs
1 cup brown sugar, tightly packed
2 cups biscuit mix
1/3 to 1/2 cup chopped peanuts
6-ounce package regular chocolate bits
6-ounce package miniature chocolate bits
1. In a bowl mix the peanut butter and eggs, gradually mixing in the brown sugar. Keep mixing as you add the biscuit mix until everything is evenly moistened.
2. Mix in peanuts and regular chocolate bits.
3. Drop the mixture by teaspoons to distribute the dough evenly in the bottom of a cold, greased skillet. Then spread it evenly , using the back of a metal spoon dipped in water.
4. Place over low flame (with flame tamer if necessary), cover tightly and bake without peeking for 10 minutes. Check quickly to see how it’s doing and keep peeking 5 minutes at a time until it’s done. It should be puffy, the top will have a dull finish and it will pull slightly away from sides of the pan. Top will not brown. Remove from fire, immediately sprinkle miniature chocolate bits over the top and let stand a few minutes until they melt. Then carefully swirl with a spatula to form a frosting effect. Let cool completely and cut into wedges for serving.
