This delicious dinner of eggs and zucchini is ideal. This was a dish that my dad, an Italian, used to whip up for himself whenever he wanted. In 1996, when I was in my 20s, I freaked out when I saw it being offered as an appetizer at a hip Greek restaurant.

Ingredients
- ⅔ cup white sugar
- 3 tablespoons peanut butter
- 3 tablespoons margarine, at room temperature
- ⅓ cup instant milk chocolate drink mix
- 2 tablespoons milk, or as needed
- 3 cups all-purpose flour, or as needed
Instructions
- Combine sugar, peanut butter, and margarine in a large bowl; beat until creamy. Mix in chocolate drink mix and milk until blended. Mix in flour until dough comes together and is no longer sticky.
- Roll dough into balls; transfer to a large plate lined with waxed paper. Store in the refrigerator.
- You can replace the milk with water or leave it out.
- For cookies, roll teaspoonfuls of dough into balls and place on well greased baking sheets. Press down with the back of a spoon. Sprinkle some sugar on top and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) until the edges brown slightly, about 15 minutes.
- There is a potential risk of foodborne illness from the consumption of raw flour.

Reviews
This is a good snack, however the recipe calls for about twice the amount of flour needed! I also added chocolate chips to mine. Yum!!
This was a total failure. If I could give it negative stars, I would. The dough never came together even though I added more milk. I wound up with what looked and tasted like sand. Total waste of food and time.
