FUDGE MELTAWAYS
I got the Betty Crocker Cooky Book when I was just a little kid and I have been making this recipe ever since. It is my favorite cookie out of the entire book! Note - I found that the 1 1/2 oz of chocolate at the end of the recipe was not quite enough for me and bumped it up to 2 oz! Cooking time is the approximate time needed to melt butter and chocolate.
