How to Make Dreamy Bedtime Pillows

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Roll the cookie dough into 1-inch balls.
  7. Flatten each ball slightly, then make an indentation in the center with your thumb.
  8. Fill each indentation with about 1 teaspoon of peanut butter.
  9. Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are set.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  11. While the cookies are cooling, prepare the frosting: Beat the butter until light and fluffy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, milk, vanilla, and salt, beating until smooth and creamy.
  12. Once the cookies are completely cool, frost the tops with the prepared frosting.
