Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.75 cup light brown sugar, packed
• 2 units large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1.75 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tablespoon milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar with a hand or stand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.

Step 7

Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the cookies are still soft in the middle. The cookies will firm up as they cool.

Step 8

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

To make the peanut butter filling, beat together the peanut butter, powdered sugar, and milk in a medium bowl until smooth and creamy. Add more milk a teaspoon at a time if the filling is too thick.

Step 10

Once the cookies are completely cool, spread a generous layer of the peanut butter filling onto the flat side of one cookie and top with another cookie, flat side down, to create a sandwich.

Step 11

Repeat with the remaining cookies and filling until all cookie sandwiches are assembled.

Step 12

Enjoy immediately, or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
