Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 ½ cups sugar, divided
  • 1 ½ cups creamy peanut butter
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 24 Milk Chocolate Lindor Lindt Balls
  • 48 candy eyes
  • 1.25 ounce black gel, tube

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350℉.
  2. In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer, cream together butter, brown sugar, 1 cup granulated sugar, and peanut butter.
  3. Add eggs, flour, baking soda and vanilla extract and mix until combined.
  4. Roll dough into 1 inch balls, roll in additional 1/2 cup sugar and place on ungreased cookie sheet. Use a fork to make a criss-cross design on top.
  5. Bake for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
