  • 2  Tbsp.  milk
  • 3/4  cup  butter, softened
  • 1/4  cup  creamy peanut butter
  • 1-1/2  cups  granulated sugar
  • 1  tsp.  baking soda
  • 1  tsp.  baking powder
  • 2    eggs
  • 1/2  cup  milk
  • 1  tsp.  vanilla
  • 1/2  cup  unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3  cups  all-purpose flour
  • 1  recipe  Filling

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Set aside 1/4 cup chocolate pieces to sprinkle on cookies. In microwave-safe bowl combine 1 cup of the chocolate pieces and 2 tablespoons milk. Microwave on 50 percent power (medium) 1 minute or until melted; stir once. Set aside.
2. In bowl beat butter and peanut butter with electric mixer until combine. Add sugar, soda, baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt; beat to combine.

Drop by rounded teaspoons 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. Sprinkle with reserved chocolate. Bake 9 minutes or until tops are set. Cool on sheets 1 minute. Transfer to wire racks; cool completely. To assemble, spread flat sides of half the cookies with Filling; top with remaining cookies.
3. Filling: In bowl beat 1 cup softened butter, 1 cup creamy peanut butter, 1 cup marshmallow creme, and 2 cups powdered sugar with electric mixer until combined. If needed, beat in 2 tablespoons milk until spreading consistency. Makes 30 servings.
