I have had cookies in the past that are PB and chocolate. They have been very dry. I decided to make a chocolate cookie dough that wasn't so dry. I added a peanut butter filling to them and put a chocolate topping on top. I got a very awesome result. Enjoy with a nice glass of milk or cup of coffee. They are perfectly Yummy!

TIPS
- **Use fresh peanut butter.** It will give your cookies a richer, more flavorful taste. - **Use a stand mixer or hand mixer to cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.** This will help your cookies achieve a chewy texture. - **Don't over-cream the butter and sugar together.** This will make your cookies dry and crumbly. - **Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.** This will help prevent your cookies from becoming too liquid. - **Stir in the dry ingredients just until combined.** Overmixing will make your cookies tough. - **Use a medium-size scoop to drop the cookies onto the prepared pan.** This will help them spread evenly. - **Bake the cookies in a preheated 375°F (190°C) until the Bottoms are just beginning to brown and the cookies spring back slightly when lightly tapped.** Do not overbake, or your cookies will be dry and crumbly. - **Let the cookies cool on the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire-rack to cool completely.** ###
CONCLUSION
These peanut butter cookies are the perfect treat for any occasion. They are chewy, flavorful, and easy to make. With just a few simple ingredients, you can enjoy these delicious cookies in no time. ###
ADDITIONAL TIPS
- For a chewier texture, refrigerate the cookies for at least 30 minutes before serving. - For a crispier texture, bake the cookies for an extra 1-2 minutes. - Add 1/2 cup of chocolate or white chocolate chunks to the batter for a chocolatey treat. - Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top of the cookies before they go in the over for a salty-savory taste. - Serve the cookies warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a glass of cold milk.
