How to Make Surprise Chocolate Bites

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine 1 cup chocolate cookie dough and 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder. Knead until thoroughly combined.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter and 1/2 cup powdered sugar. Mix until smooth.
  4. Using floured hands, roll the peanut butter mixture into 30 small balls (approximately 1 inch in diameter).
  5. Take 1 tablespoon of the chocolate cookie dough and gently make an indentation in the center.
  6. Place a peanut butter ball into the indentation and carefully enclose it with the cookie dough, shaping into a smooth ball.
  7. Repeat steps 5-6 with the remaining cookie dough and peanut butter balls.
  8. Place the balls 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
  9. Lightly dip the bottom of a glass in granulated sugar. Gently flatten each cookie ball slightly with the sugared glass.
  10. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are slightly soft.
  11. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
