    List of Ingredients




    1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    1/3 cup baking cocoa
    1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    2 cups semisweet chocolate chips -- divided
    1 cup sugar
    1 cup chunky or creamy peanut butter -- divided
    1/3 cup butter or margarine -- softened
    1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    2 eggs

    Combine flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt in small bowl.

    Melt 1 cup chips in small heavy-duty saucepan over lowest possible heat, stirring constantly until smooth. Beat in sugar, 1/3 cup peanut butter, butter and vanilla in large mixer bowl until creamy. Beat in melted chocolate. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in remaining chips. Cover. Chill just until firm.

    Shape dough into 1 1/2-inch balls. Place balls on ungreased baking sheets. Press 1/2-inch deep centers with thumb. Fill each center with about 1/2 teaspoon peanut butter.

    Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 10-15 minutes or until sides are set but centers are still slightly soft. Let stand for 2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.
