The best most gooey cookie ever, quite possibly was invented. Truffle Cookies + Peanut Butter Cookies = what dreams are made of. Seriously.
PATIENCE. I have none. Especially when it comes to baking! I swear waiting for that dough to rise is the most awful thing. Seriously, I hover over the bowl and watch the dough rise. Slowest hour and half of my life. But some how I do it. A lot.
So when I got to the point in this cookie recipe that said refrigerate the dough for FOUR hours, I was like “Uh Oh!!”. I know, I know. The first rule of baking is always read the instructions BEFORE you actually start. While, I was in a hurry and most definitely did not have four hours! I mean who wants to wait four hours to shove a cookie in their mouth. Not me. So, I did what I do best and screwed with the recipe.
I am not going to lie. I was scared, but the second I pulled these guys out of the oven I knew they were golden. And don’t worry I have tested this recipe more than once now (um, read I just needed an excuse to make more of these cookies). I mean I absolutely NEEDED to make SURE they were good. It’s confirmed. They’re delicious. So what’s my secret. The Freezer! I know glamorous right, but it works, Oh it works beautifully. And you know what else? These cookies are perfect for Valentines day. There is a whole lot of chocolate going on in this cookie. Ooey, gooey, melty (ya, I made that one up) chocolate. Then there’s the peanut butter cookie filling. Honestly, this cookie is just another example of why chocolate and peanut butter belong together. The other would be those Peanut Butter Stuffed Oreos. The real challenge here is saving some for your Valentine. Not real sure if that’s possible.

Yeah, pretty sure it’s not.
