I needed a recipe to use up the four egg yolks I had left over from making meringues so I made these! I overbaked mine (18 min in a toaster oven) so definitely bake for less time than that. Also, the egg whites are optional - mine were again, leftovers. Adapted from Deb72's "Mrs Fields Soft and Chewy Peanut Butter Cooky"
