MUDDY BUDDY COOKIES



I do believe I have a new favorite cookie.  Once these are complete, the cookie gets softer and when you bite into it...it's like eating a Reese's peanut butter cup cookie! Yup! That good!  I did have trouble getting my chocolate to thin out (tried making it 3x) and had to spread it on rather than dip but they were still absolutely delish!!!!  A must make!!!! Thanks to Cookies and Cups for this winning recipe!

Oh and the peanut butter cookie on its own? Also incredible if you need a standard pb cookie recipe!

  • 1 tsp baking soda
     
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 1/4 cup flour
  • Coating
  • 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
