Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

Yield Makes about 2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup packed light-brown sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup smooth peanut butter
1 cup roughly chopped, roasted, salted peanuts, plus 48 halves for pressing into tops
10 ounces semisweet chocolate, cut into 1-inch chunks

Steps:

  • Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl, and set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter andsugar on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla; beat until well combined. Add peanut butter, and beat until combined.
  • Add the flour mixture all at once, and beat on low speed until just combined. Add the peanuts; beat until combined. Wrap dough in plastic wrap, and chill in refrigerator at least 2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Pinch off about 2 tablespoons of dough, and make a well in your hand with the dough. Place one chunk of chocolate in the center, and enclose with the dough to cover completely. Roll dough into about a 1 3/4-inchball with your hands.
  • Place the ball of dough on the baking sheet; repeat with the remaining dough and chocolate, placing cookies about 2 inches apart. Press 2 peanut halves into the top of each cookie.
  • Bake until cookies are golden, 16 to 18 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through. Remove from the oven; transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool slightly.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-made peanut butter cookie dough. You can find this in the refrigerated section of most grocery stores.
  • If you don't have a large star tip, you can use a small one. Just be sure to pipe the peanut butter mixture into the cookie dough mounds in a circular motion, starting from the outside and working your way in.
  • Be careful not to overbake the cookies. They should be slightly soft in the center when you take them out of the oven.
  • Sprinkle the cookies with a little bit of sea salt before serving. This will help to balance out the sweetness of the cookies and give them a more complex flavor.
  • These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

These Peanut Butter Surprises are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are sure to be a hit with your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give these cookies a try. You won't be disappointed.
