Ingredients

1 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup butter softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
24-30 Rolo chocolate candies unwrapped

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking pans with parchment paper or silcone mats.
In a large mixing bowl or mixer, cream together the peanut butter, butter, sugar, and brown sugar. Beat together until smooth & creamy.
Add the eggs and vanilla extract and continue to mix until well combined.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
Stir the flour mixture into the butter and sugar mixture until well combined.
Fill a cookie dough scoop about halfway with dough. Press 1 Rolo into the center, then fill the scoop with more dough to cover the Rolo. Place on the cookie sheet.
Using a fork, press down on each ball of dough to flatten and create a criss-cross pattern. Spinkle with sugar if desired.
Bake for 8-9 minutes. Do not over bake* (see note), Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes and then transfer to a wire rack.

Notes

The cookies may not look completely finished baking, but they will set as they cool. If you overbake, you'll end up with dry, crumbly cookies instead of soft and chewy as they should be!
