Sweetness on Sunday featuring Tiger's Curse by Colleen Houck: Recipe & Giveaway!!

I have a very special Sweetness on Sunday for you today!!
Thanks to Colleen Houck and Katie at Sterling Publishing, I have a wonderful recipe from the story and a copy of the newly released paperback version of Tiger's Curse to give away!!

Here we go!So, of course, I had to make these for myself. And I am telling you--these are delightfully yummy! So rich and chocolatey with a yummy peanut butter center. Especially good fresh from the oven (ok, well, wait a few minutes so as not to burn your mouth, I guess lol) when they are still very warm and gooey. And the tall glass of milk pictured next to it is almost a must! :D

Ren's Cookies
Ingredients:
2 sticks of butter
¾ cup sugar
¾ cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 ½ tsp vanilla
¼ tsp salt
¾ cup dark coco powder
2 cups flour
½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
1 bag of chocolate chips
¾ cup smooth peanut butter
½ cup brown sugar

Cream the butter then add sugars. When it’s light and fluffy, add eggs and vanilla. Sift the next 5 dry ingredients and mix with the wet until thoroughly combined. Add one package of chocolate chips (or as many as you like!) to the dough. Mix together the next 2 ingredients to make the peanut butter filling. Then place a spoonful of the chocolate dough on a baking sheet, top with some peanut butter filling, and cover with some more chocolate dough. Bake at 350 degrees for 12-20 minutes depending on cookie size.
