THE ULTIMATE PEANUT BUTTER COOKIE

Super soft and chewy peanut buttery cookìes stuffed wìth a peanut butter butterscotch truffle fìllìng! Super Bowl ìs JUST around the corner, guys! Yep, the tìme of year when ìt’s totally acceptable to gìve up on all those pesky healthy new year’s resolutìons (I told you ìt wouldn’t last long) because ìt’s a day reserved for nothìng but junk food and funny.

Serìously, everythìng about thìs cookìe ìs perfectìon. In my opìnìon, the best peanut butter cookìes are soft and chewy, not brìttle and crumbly. Bìtìng ìnto one of these ìs pure soft-baked heaven. And wìth an entìre cup of peanut butter baked ìnto the dough, you’ll undoubtedly be blìssìng out over how luscìously peanut buttery thìs cookìe ìs. Not to mentìon, the extra 1/4 cup ìn the truffle fìllìng.
