From the kitchen of Stephanie Knewasser. I found this recipe
online. The chocolate dough is rolled into balls then coated with
chopped peanuts. After baking, a mini pb cub is placed on top.
As if this isn't enough, the whole thing is topped with a drizzle of
peanut butter and chocolate. A lot of work? Yes. Worth it? You
bet.

Unwrap & freeze a bag of Mini Peanut Butter Cups.
In a microwavable bowl:
1 c semisweet choc chips
2 oz unsweetened chocolate
Microwave @ 50% for 2 minutes. Stir.
Repeat until smooth & melted. Set aside.
In a mixer, beat until crumbly:
1 c sugar
1/2 c crisco
Beat in:
2 eggs
1 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
Add chocolate slowly, on low speed.
Mix until well blended.
With spoon, stir in:
1 1/2 c + 2 Tbsp flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
Blend well. Cover & refrigerate until firm enough
to handle. Roll into balls. Roll balls in:
3/4 c finely chopped peanuts
Bake @ 350, 8-10 minutes or until set.
Immediately after removing cookies from oven,
press a frozen pb cup in center. OK to press cookie
around pb cup, but don't touch pb cup, it melts fast.
Cool completely.
Melt:
1 c peanut butter chips
Put in a baggie, put a SMALL cut in the corner.
Drizzle over cookie.
Melt:
1/2 c semisweet chocolate chips
Drizzle over cookie at a different angle.
These freeze well, but chocolate dulls if frozen.
