Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies

I have always loved baking. Some of my favorite things to bake (and let’s be honest, eat) are cookies! I typically bake classic chocolate chip cookies. But, I was craving something different one night and thought I would try making something new. Thankfully, they turned out even better than I thought they would. If you’re in the mood for a sweet treat I recommend baking these immediately!
