Ingredients

  • 1 box fudge brownie mix unprepared
  • 1/4 cup butter softened
  • 4 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 egg

Toppings:

  • 1 1/3 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 4 ounces melting chocolate chocolate chips/chocolate bark/chocolate bar/candy bar

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350F degrees.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat together the brownie mix, butter, cream cheese, and egg with an electric mixer until well combined.
  • Using a cookie scoop, scoop the batter out onto a parchment lined cookie sheet, making 24 cookies, and smoothing the batter to form round cookies.
  • Bake the cookies for 12 minutes, or just until the cookies are set.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the powdered sugar and the peanut butter until smooth; set aside.
  • When cookies are done, remove from the oven, and let cool for 10 minutes.
  • Scoop some of the peanut butter mixture onto the center of each cookie. Cool the cookies on the cookie sheets for about 10 minutes, and then transfer them to a wire rack to finish cooling completely.
  • While the cookies are cooling, melt the chocolate in the microwave in a microwave safe bowl for about 15 seconds, and stir the chocolate, and return to microwave for another 15 seconds, and repeat until chocolate is completely melted. Spoon about a teaspoon of melted chocolate on top of each cookie. Continue cooling the cookies for an hour until the chocolate is set.
