Source of Recipe


From "Family Circle Best-Ever Cakes & Cookies"



List of Ingredients



• 1-1/3 cups all-purpose flour
  
• ½ tsp baking soda
  
• ½ tsp salt
  
• ½ cup granulated sugar
  
• ½ cup packed light brown sugar
  
• ½ cup butter, at room temperature
  
• 2 eggs
  
• 1 Tbsp milk
  
• 1 tsp vanilla
  
• 1-1/3 cups chunky peanut butter
  
• ¼ cup peanuts, finely chopped
  
• 1-1/3 cups marshmallow cream
  






Instructions



1. Heat oven to 375° F.
   Whisk together flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl. With a mixer on medium speed, beat sugars and butter in a medium-size bowl until blended. Beat in eggs, milk and vanilla. On low speed, gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in 2/3 cup peanut butter.
   
   
2. Drop batter by rounded teaspoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets, spacing 1½ inches apart. Top each with 1/8 teaspoon chopped peanuts. Bake in heated 375° oven 8 to 10 minutes, until golden. Cool cookies 2 minutes on baking sheets. Transfer to racks to cool completely.
   
   
3. Turn cookies flat side up. Spoon about 2 teaspoons marshmallow cream onto half of the cookies. Spread about 1 teaspoon peanut butter onto each remaining cookie, then invert on top of a marshmallow cream-topped cookie.
   
   Makes 30 sandwich cookies.
