Instructions
- In a small bowl whisk together flour, cocoa powder, and salt.
- In large mixing bowl combine butter and sugar and mix until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
- Add egg yolk, milk, and vanilla. Continue mixing until egg is incorporated.
- Slowly add dry ingredients a half cup at a time until mixture comes together into a dough.
- Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Remove the dough from refrigerator and roll dough into 1 inch balls, approximately 1 ½ tablespoons of dough each.
- Using your leftover egg white dip the bottom half of each dough ball into the egg white and then dip into a small bowl of chopped peanuts. Press the peanuts into the dough gently.
- Use the back of a teaspoon to press a deep indentation in the middle of each cookie.
- Bake for 10 - 12 minutes.
- Remove from oven and press the back of the teaspoon into each of the cookies to make sure the indentation is deep enough for the filling.
- Let the cookies cool for 5 minutes on the cookie sheet then move to cooling racks to finish cooling.
- While the cookies cool add the peanut butter and powdered sugar to a microwave-safe bowl and stir together.
- Once the cookies are completely cool place the bowl of peanut butter in the microwave and heat for 15 seconds at a time, stirring in between, until the peanut butter is a pourable consistency. Approximately 30 seconds.
- Using a ½ teaspoon fill the cookies with alternating flavors of peanut butter.
- Place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe dish. Microwave 5 seconds at a time until they are melted and smooth.
- Using a spoon drizzle the chocolate over the cookies.
- Let cookies sit until chocolate and peanut butter have firmed up.
