It has been awhile since I have made cookies so this past weekend I decided it was time to make some dough. Duane loves peanut butter and I wanted to make something I thought he would really like. I went with these chocolate peanut butter centered cookies. When I ate the first cookie, I thought a glass of milk would go great with them. Instead of the milk, I grabbed some Fat Free Breyers Creamy Vanilla ice cream, a bowl and a spoon. I am so glad I did, this was such an amazing dessert. This recipe will be going into the “will make again soon” folder.
