Cookie Dough:
1 1/2 c. flour
1/2 c. unsweetened cocoa
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. margarine
1/4 c. peanut butter
1 tsp. vanilla
1 egg
Filling:
3/4 c. peanut butter
3/4 c. powdered sugar
In a small bowl, combine flour, cocoa and baking soda; blend well. In a large bowl beat sugar, margarine, and 1/4 cup peanut butter until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and egg. Beat well. Stir in flour mixture until blended. Set aside. In a small bowl, combine filling ingredients; blend well. Roll into 30 (1-inch) balls.
For each cookie, with floured hands, shape about 1 tablespoon of dough around each peanut butter ball, covering completely. (First, shape the chocolate dough into a flat circle, place peanut butter ball in the center, and shape chocolate around it.)
Place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten with the bottom of a glass dipped in sugar. Bake at 375 degrees for 7-9 minutes or until cookies are set and slightly cracked. Cool and decorate as desired. Makes about 30 cookies.
