One of my favorite types of cookies and also a cookie I enjoy making is the peanut butter blossoms. Those would be peanut butter cookies with a Hershey Kiss in the center. While I love peanut butter I think I love chocolate even more.
How about some Chocolate Peanut Butter Blossoms…
These cookies are so good. I think I may might make them with cocoa more often! I actually need to make another batch.
