Time 1h30m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 13

Cookies:
2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Filling:
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1-1/4 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla, and beat until well incorporated. Gradually add the dry mixture to the creamed mixture, beating on the lowest speed until just incorporated.
  • Divide the dough in half, and shape into two balls. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • When the dough is chilled, preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Taking only one ball of dough out of the refrigerator at a time, turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough to 1/8 to 1/4-inch thickness with a piece of parchment paper over it to prevent the rolling pin from sticking to the dough. Use a round cookie cutter to cut out cookies and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake the cookies for 12 minutes rotating sheets halfway through. Immediately transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • While the cookies are cooling, prepare the filling. Beat the butter and peanut butter with an electric mixer at medium speed until blended. Reduce the speed to low and gradually beat in the powdered sugar. Increase the speed to high and beat for 3 to 5 minutes, until smooth and fluffy.
  • Spread the filling onto half of the cookies and top with the remaining cookies to form cookie sandwiches.

Peanut Butter-Filled Chocolate Cookies image

Seriously - if you love peanut butter and chocolate these cookes are a MUST try. Imagine a wonderful chewy chocolate cookie with a creamy peanut butter filling - it is as good as it sounds. The recipe is from Toronto Star. We made them today and they will be on our cookie tray for years to come - for sure! The recipe mentions that the cookie does well with a 15 second reheat in the microwave on day 3. I don't think we will get to try that in this household.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The type of chocolate you use will greatly affect the flavor of your cookies. Opt for a good-quality semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will result in tough, dry cookies. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set: The cookies should be slightly soft in the center when you take them out of the oven. They will continue to firm up as they cool.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before filling them: This will help prevent the filling from melting and making the cookies soggy.
