[I made these last night to pack for my trip to Reno. Whatever you do,
don't use creamy peanut butter! With just 1/2 cup nut butter mixed with 2
cups flour, the nut taste gets kind of lost. I used almond butter; we also
used Cantbelieveitsnotbutter for the margarine. Don't round those Tbspfulls
too high, as these cookies wind up a bit on the large size. I also forgot
about flattening them out; oh well... What I have are chocolate chip
cookies (mini-chips), with a faint almond flavor.]
