Chocolate Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies

There is nothing quite like the combination of chocolate and peanut butter!  I used to love those Reece commercials where someone with a chocolate bar “accidently” bumps into someone eating out of a jar of peanut butter!  I would be the one with the jar of peanut butter. And yes, I have been known to dip a piece of chocolate in!

My friend picked up me some wonderful vintage baking tins when she was out and about.  She knows me well!

I couldn’t wait to use them.  While not quite madeleine pans, they are similar but a bit deeper.  The madeleine batter worked well and I filled them almost to the top to get a good raise.

Be warned, the prepared batter has to sit for two hours at room temperature before baking, so plan accordingly!

Fill them with peanut butter filling made simply with peanut butter, confectioners sugar and milk!

Dust with confectioners sugar and there you have it!

Prep time: 15 mins
Cook time: 12 mins
Total time: 27 mins
Serves: 12
Ingredients
  • 1 stick plus 1 tbsp. butter
  • 1 1/2 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, chopped into small bits
  • 2 eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 cup plus 1 tablespoon all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • FILLING
  • 2 cups confectioners sugar, sifted
  • 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup milk

  1. Melt butter and cook until browned. Strain through fine sieve and cool slightly.
  2. Whisk together eggs, vanilla and sugar until sugar is dissolved. Whisk in honey.
  3. Sift the flour, baking powder and cocoa into a medium sized bowl.

  5. Stir in the chocolate bits.
  6. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature for two hours.
