  • 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar, sifted
  • 1/4 cup salted peanuts, finely chopped
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar, sifted

Instructions

  1. Combine peanut butter chips and chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler; bring water to a boil. Reduce heat to low; cook until chips melt.
  2. Remove from heat, and stir in the 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar and peanuts. Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes or until mixture is firm enough to make into balls. (Do not refrigerate.)
  3. Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
  4. Make into 3/4 inch balls, and let stand until firm.
  5. Combine flour, butter and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl; beat at medium speed with an electric mixer until blended.
  6. Shape dough into a 10 inch log; cut into 1/4 inch slices. Gently press a dough slice around each ball; place on ungreased cookie sheets.
  7. Bake for 18 minutes or until cookies are lightly browned.
  8. Remove to wire racks to cool slightly.
  9. Roll in 1 cup confectioners' sugar, and cool completely on wire racks.
