OMG! These are fantastic! I found this recipe online while searching for a peanut butter cookie recipe the other day and just had to try them. I was not disappointed! Mmmm, peanut butter and chocolate. Not many ways that can go wrong. =)
In a small bowl combine flour, cocoa, and baking soda; blend well. In large bowl, beat sugar, brown sugar, Earth Balance, and 1/4 cup peanut butter until light and fluffy. Add vanilla extract and egg; beat well. Stir in flour mixture until blended and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine filling ingredients and blend well. Roll into 30 one-inch balls.
For each cookie, with floured hands (I didn't do the flour and had no problems), shape about 1 tablespoon cookie dough around one peanut butter ball, covering completely. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten slightly with palm of your hand. Bake at 375 degrees for 7 - 9 minutes or until set and slightly cracked. Cool on wire racks. Makes 30.
I made larger cookies and baked them for about 10 - 12 minutes. You can make this a little healthier by using egg substitute and other substitutions that meet your dietary needs.
