Peanut Butter Chocolate Cookies
This recipe was featured in our Sunday paper and I just had to try it. Kids really love the peanut butter surprise inside the cookie.

These were absolutely decadent and delicious, but the filling was so rich I would probably use half next time. Getting 24 cookies is easier if you divide the dough before assembling (I divided half onto each cookie sheet, then broke each half into four pieces, and each of those into three pieces). Wash your hands after handling the peanut butter filling, otherwise folding the cookie dough around it will be totally impossible! This produces soft, non-crumbly cookies with a filling that is deliciously gooey when hot out of the oven and more like Reese's in consistency when cool. The chocolate smells wonderful but the flavor of it is really overpowered by peanut butter.
These cookies taste great, but they are a pain to put together. Because I have to make these gluten free, the dough was much stickier due to the xanthan gum and made it near impossible to work with. If I were to make these again, I would turn them into thumbprint cookies just for the ease of the preparation. Great taste though!
yes, really good cookies. Definitely will make again
SO good! The only problem I had with them is the difficulty it takes to "assemble" the cookies. The peanut butter mixture is supposed to be completely enclosed in the chocolate dough. It is simply said........ impossible, (at least with my experience).They are very sweet, so don't be afraid to eliminate some of the sugar. The peanut butter dough is sticky and hard to deal with so you can refrigerate it or freeze it some to make it easier. Overall, they were delicious! Just be aware of the effort and frustration it might require of you!
The first time I made these my sister asked how I got the peanut butter inside the cookie. I've never had anyone turn them down!!
Rich decadent good - but they are HUGE - Next time I will definitely make this into 48 cookies insteas of 24 - given the calorie count this will be a major improvement
Made these for a weekly Wednesday night cookout and they went fast. My brother loved them and asked for the recipe. Even said he could eat them weekly (on Wednesdays, lol). Very good and will make again. Thanks for the recipe.

These cookies are great! They're simple to make but they take a lot of time to prepare. I've never been able to get 24 cookies but only about 20. Despite all this they are definitely worth it!
THESE COOKIES ARE AWESOME!!!!!! They had a very nice consistency. The instructions were a little confusing but, i got the hang of it!
