Add the corn syrup and milk, stirring to blend. Shape into a 2-inch wide log. and refrigerate for about 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Remove dough from refrigerator and cut into 1/8 - 1/4 inch thick slices. Place half the slices on an ungreased baking sheet. Spread each slice with about 1/2 tsp. remaining peanut butter and top with remaining cookie slices. Using the tines of a fork, seal the edges of the cookies like a piecrust. Bake for about 12-13 minutes. Let cookies cool slightly on baking sheet and then transfer to a wire rack. Makes about 2 dozen cookies.
