Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F and line one or two large baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Whisk the cookie mix and cocoa powder together in a large mixing bowl.
- Using a hand mixer, beat in the egg and melted butter until the dough is smooth, about 2 minutes.
- Using a 1½-tablespoon cookie portion scoop, make balls of dough and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet(s).
- Use a fork to gently press a criss-cross pattern into the top of the cookies but don’t squash them totally flat.
- Sprinkle each cookie with a little sugar, optional, and then bake for 7-10 minutes, or just until the edges are set.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 3-5 minutes on the baking sheet before removing to a cooling rack or serving warm.
Notes
- Storage: Store chocolate peanut butter cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
