Peanut Butter Blossoms

1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
1 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup butter or margerine
3 large eggs
2-1/2 cups all purpose flour
1-1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 bag chocolate stars candy

Preheat over to 375
Mix all ingredients except flour. Add flour gradually while mixing. Roll
into 1-1/2" balls. Bake 9-10 minutes or until lightly browned. While
cookies are still quite hot, push the chocolate stars into the center of
each cookie taking care not to push all the way through. Stars will melt,
so let them cool thoroughly before storing in air tight container. Makes
about 8 dozen cookies.
