Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box fudge brownie mix (19.5 ounce or family size)
- 1/4 cup butter melted
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 4 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large bowl, beat the brownie mix, butter, cream cheese, and egg. The dough will be thick and sticky. Scoop the dough onto parchment lined or greased cookie sheets.
- Make 24- about 30 cookies. Smooth the edges of each to form a round cookie.
- In a small bowl, beat together the powdered sugar and the peanut butter until smooth. Form the mixture into about 1 inch balls, one for each cookie. Set the balls aside.
- Bake the cookie dough 11-13 minutes, or until edges are firm. It is fine if the cookies seem a little gooey. Just make sure the bottoms are firm enough to hold the peanut butter ball. Immediately press a peanut butter ball lightly into the center of each cookie. Let the cookies cool for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Melt the chocolate chips in a microwavable bowl at 50% power, stirring every 30 seconds, until melted. Spoon melted chocolate on top of each cookie. Let chocolate set before storing in an airtight container.
