Peanut Butter Chocolate Cream Cheese Sandwich Cookies

Well its Sunday today and no, it’s NOT “Cheat-day-bake-day” for me, (Darn!) however, hubby loves his cookies throughout the week, so I gotta bake ’em. Peanut butter and chocolate, what’s not to like. Hubby’s second love is chocolate (I’m #1 of course) and I believe his third is peanut butter.

These cookies are kinda like inside out peanut butter cups only in sandwich cookie form.  The tangy cream cheese in this chocolate filling makes it not overly sweet but still tastes rich.

You could refrigerate the dough for an hour or two and form it into a log and then cut even sized cookies, however, I didn’t want to wait and they turned out just fine.  I just rolled them into 1 inch balls, then flattened them down with my fingers. They all are not exact size, but most matched up just fine.  If I was in a baking contest, then I’d be worried.  But hey, as long as hubby approves, that’s all that matters!

Put a healthy glob of chocolate cream cheese filling on those cookies.  –Just as I’m writing this post this evening, hubby went and got another one of these cookies. So, yeah, they’ll hubby approved! Hubby likes!
