Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar (plus more for dipping)
  • 1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter, divided
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 375°. Whisk together first 4 ingredients in a medium-size mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, beat together granulated and brown sugars, butter, and 1/4 cup peanut butter until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and egg, beating to combine. Stir in dry ingredients, blending well. Set dough aside.
  2. 2
    Stir together remaining 3/4 cup peanut butter and powdered sugar until smooth. With floured hands, roll mixture into 26 (1-inch) balls.
  3. 3
    Break off about 1 tablespoon cookie dough; make an indentation in center with thumb, and press 1 peanut butter ball into indentation. Wrap dough up and over filling, pressing to seal; roll cookie to smooth it out. Repeat for each cookie.
  4. 4
    Dip top of each cookie in granulated sugar, and place 2 inches apart on lightly greased baking sheets. Use greased bottom of drinking glass to flatten each cookie to about 1/2 inch thick.
  5. 5
    Bake cookies at 375° for 7 to 9 minutes or until set. Let cool on wire rack.
