  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup Dutch process cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Peanut Butter Filling: In a bowl, mix peanut butter, powdered sugar, and ground cinnamon until smooth. Chill for 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  3. Make the Cookie Dough: In one bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, mix melted butter, sugars, vanilla extract, and eggs until well combined. Gradually add the dry ingredients.
  4. Form the Cookies: Scoop tablespoon-sized dough, flatten it, place a teaspoon of chilled filling in the center, and form a ball around it.
