Chocolate Peanut Butter Surprise Cookies

Sweet Pea's Kitchen

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup granulated sugar (plus more for rolling)

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup creamy peanut butter, divided

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 egg

3/4 cup powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 375º F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.

In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together sugars, butter and 1/4 cup of peanut butter until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla and egg, beating to combine. Stir in the flour mixture and stir to combine, blending well. Set aside. In a medium bowl, mix together powdered sugar and remaining 3/4 cup of peanut butter until smooth.

Pull off a heaping tablespoon of cookie dough and flatten with your hands. Take about 1 teaspoon of peanut butter mixture and place it in the center of the chocolate dough. Wrap the chocolate dough around the peanut butter center, pressing to seal. Roll the cookie into a ball and roll the cookie in the sugar. Place cookies on the prepared baking sheet 2 inches apart. Using the bottom of a glass, flatten each cookie to about a 1/2 inch thickness.

Bake in preheated oven for 7 to 9 minutes. Let stand on the baking sheet for 2 minutes, then remove to a wire rack.

My favorite cookie ever (well, one of them, anyway) is GS Peanut Butter Patties

so this sounds divine!

One cookie that both DDs and I are trying hard to figure out how to make are Pop Biscuits. They are from an Enid Blyton fantasy - a little elf called Silky made them regularly. When you bite into them, honey flows out.

Now if I made these Surprise cookies with creamed honey, I bet it would all melt and seep out during baking, but I might try it anyway. If I enclosed it in rice paper? Hmmm.

 
No and Yes. Hah! I thought they were going to be more of a project

to put together Marg but they weren't. Now, I did have John helping(? and I'm really not sure sometimes) so it went quickly. After making the cookie mixture I put it in the fridge for about 30 min because I was afraid it would be hard to work with. Don't. It actually was to crumbly at first until it warmed up a bit. Patted out in the palm of my hand, added the ball of peanut butter mix and just folded around. I then handed it off to the big guy to roll and roll in sugar. It would have not taken much more for me to finish the steps. I flattened a bit to much so next time I won't smoosh as much. I may never make another cookie again. I love Reese's cups and this sure does the trick for me.

 
Chocolates!
