Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Using a hand or stand mixer, cream together the butter, white sugar and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy.
- Mix the peanut butter into the butter mixture until well combined.
- Next, blend in the egg and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Slowly mix in the flour mixture on low speed, just until combined. Do not overmix.
- Using a 1 ½ Tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop out the dough and roll into balls.
- Place the rolled cookies on the prepared baking sheets with at least 1 ½ inches in between them.
- Bake one sheet at a time for 10-14 minutes or just until the cookies are cracked all over and golden brown on the edges.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 3-5 minutes and then use a rounded teaspoon to indent each cookie.
- Allow them to cool for an additional 5-10 minutes before removing from the baking sheet to a cooling rack.
- While the cookies are baking, make the ganache by placing the chocolate chips in a heat safe bowl.
- In a separate, microwave safe bowl, place the heavy cream and heat in 30 second increments until steaming, about 1-2 minutes. Do not boil.
- Pour the hot cream over the chocolate chips and let sit for 5 minutes.
- Whisk together the chocolate and cream until completely smooth.
- When the cookies have been moved to a cooling rack, pipe or scoop in about 1 teaspoon of ganache into each cookie.
- Allow cookies to cool and ganache to set before serving.
Notes
- Place cookies into an airtight container and store at room temperature for up to 5 days. You can also freeze leftover cookies! Transfer to an airtight container or freezer safe bag and place in the freezer for up to 3 months.
