Ingredients

For the Cookies:
1 cup all-purpose flour 🌾
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 🍫
1/2 teaspoon baking soda 🧁
1/4 teaspoon salt 🧂
1/2 cup butter (softened) 🧈
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter 🥜
1 cup granulated sugar 🍬
1 large egg 🥚
1 teaspoon vanilla extract 🍦
For the Peanut Butter Filling:
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter 🥜
1/4 cup powdered sugar 🍩
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract 🍦
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (softened) 🧈
Pinch of salt 🧂

Instructions

Make the Cookies:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper 🥄.
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt 🌾.
In a large bowl, beat together the butter, peanut butter, and sugar until smooth and creamy 🥜.
Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined 🍦.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined 🍫.
Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each ball slightly with a fork 🧁.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies have set and slightly cracked on top 🍪.
Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack before assembling.
Make the Peanut Butter Filling:
In a small bowl, beat together the peanut butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, butter, and salt until smooth and creamy 🥜🍩.
Once the cookies have cooled, spread a generous amount of the peanut butter filling on the flat side of one cookie 🧈.
Place another cookie on top, pressing gently to sandwich them together 🍪.
Optional Decoration:
Drizzle melted chocolate over the top for an extra indulgent touch 🍫. Let it set before serving!
