- 1 large egg
Peanut Butter Filling:
- 1 cup powdered sugar

- Bake: Bake cookie dough for 12 minutes, ensuring they are cooked but not overdone.
- Add Peanut Butter Filling: Immediately after baking, press a peanut butter ball into the center of each cookie. Let cool for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
- Prepare Chocolate Topping: Melt chocolate in the microwave, then spoon over each cookie to cover the peanut butter ball. Allow chocolate to set before storing.
