Nut cookies in the shape of "sticks" or "fingers" were kind of a thing back in the day. This finger recipe is inspired by the Peanut Butter Cookies in Cookies Galore (1956) and also the Sugared Almond Sticks in Pillsbury’s Best Butter Cookie Cookbook (1963). I substituted bread flour for the all purpose for chewiness, which is a must for a peanut butter cookie in my opinion. In addition, each finger is dipped in milk chocolate, because a twenty-first-century, super-chewy peanut butter cookie in the shape of a stick deserves a glaze (plus a sprinkling of flaky sea salt never hurts either).
