Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies

These cookies are perfect when you are looking for a chocolate fix. Filled with cocoa powder, chocolate chips, and just enough peanut butter... they are amazing! When eaten warm from the oven the chocolate chips are melted and the cookie is fudgy. If eaten later, they are soft, delicious, and perfect for dunking in a glass of cold milk. Either way, they are yummy!

Enjoy!
