    The original recipe called for the chocolate chips to be melted with oil in the microwave. I modified the recipe by making a ganache.

Number of Servings:

Ingredients:

  1. 1 sticks - butter softened
  2. 1/2 cups - creamy peanut butter
  3. 1/2 cups - sugar
  4. 1/2 cups - brown sugar
  5. 1 - egg
  6. 1 1/2 cups - all purpose flour
  7. 3/4 teaspoons - baking powder
  8. 1/4 teaspoons - baking soda
  9. 1 cups - milk chocolate chips
  10. 1 cups - cream
  11. 1/2 cups - powder sugar

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375°. Prepare a cookie sheet by lining with parchment paper or spraying with cooking spray.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, or use a handheld blender, blend together the butter, peanut butter, sugar, and brown sugar until creamy and light in color. Add in egg and blend to combine.
In a separate bowl, add the flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Stir with a wire whisk. Add to the wet ingredients and blend just until combined.
Shape into 1 inch balls and place on cookie sheet. You can fit 15 to each cookie sheet because they won't spread much at all.
Bake 8 minutes. Immediately after cooking, take a small cup and gently press down on the cookie. This will flatten them as well as give those pretty crinkly edges.
Let cookies cool on cookie sheet for 10 minutes and then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Filling
Put chocolate chips in a heat safe bowl. Heat cream until just simmering. Immediately pour hot cream over the chocolate chips and let sit a few minutes for chocolate chips to start melting. Stir until smooth. Let sit a few minutes before spooning on to the cookies.

Use a spoon and place a small amount of chocolate onto each cookie and spread around.
Let chocolate set and cool completely (about 2 hours) before dusting with powdered sugar. To speed up the chocolate cooling and hardening, place cookies in the fridge or the freezer.
