  5. Spread HALF of the cookie batter evenly into the greased dish and press down.
  6. Optional: Spread a layer of chocolate tahini spread, peanut butter, or melted chocolate on top of the cookie dough.
  7. Top with additional peanut butter cookie dough and make sure it is evenly spread.
  8. Bake for 20-24 minutes, or until top is browned. Do not over-bake!
  9. Remove from the oven and let cool, or dig in right away :)
  10. Top with additional peanut butter or melted chocolate chips, if desired.
