Again, diets sucks but I've lost 14 pounds in less than 30 days, so it's working.
So, where did I get this recipe? Well, let me introduce you to her! She has an amazing blog and has some pretty tasty recipes....Check her out! Joie de vivre. So, thanks my dear for sharing this cookie so I can try and share with my family and friends.
Enjoy,
Jenifer

Chocolate Dough:
1 1/2 cups of unbleached all purpose flour
1/2 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) of room temp butter
1/4 cup smooth peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg
Peanut butter filling:
3/4 cup of peanut butter
3/4 cup of confectioners sugar (powdered sugar)
To make the dough, in a medium size bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
In another bowl, get the sugar, brown sugar, butter and peanut butter ready to beat.
Did you beat it up good, if you did, it should like the picture above?
Now add the egg and vanilla. Mix well.
Now add the dry mix to the wet mix and.....
...mix it well, this is what it should look like....if it looks too dry, add another egg, that is what I did.

Let's make magic or otherwise known as the filling. In a small bowl, add your peanut butter and confectioners sugar and mix well.

Take the magic mix and start rolling into little balls, aren't my balls pretty?

Now take your chocolate dough and make a walnut size ball and pretty your thumb in the middle to insert the peanut butter ball.
See how cozy my ball looks? It looks like a big ol' eyeball.
Now, it's time to close the eyelid to cover up the eye ball. Gently pinch the chocolate dough around the ball, just like this! Once that is done, use both hands and roll it up into a perfect little circle and place on baking sheet. Take a drinking glass and slightly press on the ball to help flatten it up a bit before baking. Bake cookies for 7 minutes. Let cool slightly before you try.
