Ingredients:
Cookies:
8 oz chocolate chips (or any chopped chocolate)
2 tbsp margarine
2 eggs
1/2 cup + 2 tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup flour
1/4 tsp baking powder
Peanut butter topping:
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup confectioners sugar
Chocolate topping:
4 oz chocolate chips (or any chocolate)
Preheat oven to 350
Melt the margarine and chocolate chips together either in the microwave or on the stove. Meanwhile mix together the eggs, vanilla and sugar. When the chocolate is done add it to the egg mixture. Add the flour and baking powder. Mix until everything is combined. Refrigerate (or freeze if you dont want to wait so long) until the dough if firm (it will still be sticky even after refrigerating)
In the meantime you can make the peanut butter balls. Mix together the peanut butter and the confectioners sugar. If you don't want the cookies SUPER peanut buttery you can divide the recipe in half and make smaller balls for each cookie. When the mixture is all mixed form it into balls. Choose the size depending on how big you are planning to make your cookies and how much peanut butter you like! I made my balls pretty big and ended up cutting off half the peanut butter from each cookie after I tasted one because it was like eating a spoonfull of peanut butter.
When the dough is firm take it out of the fridge. You can either roll the dough into balls (but since it is sticky it gets tricky) or just plop some dough down on your lined cookie sheets. Bake for 10 minutes , they should be firm around the edges and still a little soft in the middle. When the cookies some out of the oven press a peanut butter ball into each cookie. I flattened my balls out a little and then placed them on the cookie.
When the cookies are cool melt the 4 oz of chocolate and top the peanut butter with some chocolate. If you would like you can also pipe some extra chocolate and make a design on the cookies!
