Buckeye Brownie Cookies

Cookies, cookies, cookies! How simple this dessert is and how many recipes there are! When it comes to this sweet treats, maybe the biggest problem is which of the cookies to choose at that moment!

Well just think a little! If you like to find recipes on food blogs like I love to do, just remember how long the list is with recipes in the category cookies on your favorite blog!

OK, since you know that one of my favorite ingredients is chocolate (and peanut butter, check out this page for a great recipe), I will make the decision a little easier. But just a little easier since there are so much chocolate cookies also! And this is a new problem for a real chocoholic 🙂

But a few days ago my problem came down to only two fantastic recipes for chocolate cookies which I found searching Pinterest – Nutella Filled Cookies or Buckeye Brownie Cookies! A real Shakespearean „to be or not to be“ dilemma. Of course, only a real kitchen Hamlet could solve this kitchen dilemma – my husband.

„Tomorrow is cookie time. Come on, make a decision on these two recipes“ I suggested to my husband not knowing that I was about to enter a real life „to be or not to be“ drama.

„Woow they are both great. I really don’t know what to tell you“, concluded my husband delighted looking at the pictures on the display.

„These Buckeye Brownie Cookies look so decadent and delicious… but come to think of it, Nutella is Nutella“. The dilemma was getting bigger.

„You know what? Make this brownie cookies, they have peanut butter. No, when I think a little more, after this, you probably won’t make cookies for a long time. So… maybe it’s better that you make the ones with Nutella“. The drama continued.

So after a few minutes, I had only one solution. To throw my husband out of the kitchen and make my own decision. And the decision was final –  Buckeye Brownie Cookies and that’s it.

And of course, the one who risks – profits! What else could you expect from a fudgy dough with a layer of sugar and peanut butter and chocolate ganache topping. My brownie cookies were looked  like chocolate heaven 🙂

„Vera, what have you decided? I think that it better be the ones with Nutella“ my husband flew in the kitchen a bit latter.

„Well, Hamlet, your time has passed. But since you were very dedicated to the problem, here is the reward“ I was joking around with my husband while I was giving him a plate with a few Buckeye Brownie Cookies which my husband took with both hands happy that the dilemma was successfully solved.
These buckeye brownie cookies are soft, cake-like cookies that are filled with a creamy dollop of peanut butter. They are easy buckeye treats!

Hi Angela, I think it won’t work well for this recipe.

Do you just store these on the counter, in an airtight container. Your thoughts on making these ahead by 1-2 days?

Uhhhhh! That sound delish! OMG… I have the best cookie recipe that I always use and I know really well, but one of the ladies from our mother’s group has challenge us all to bake our best recipes and choose the ultimate cookie recipe and exchange them at the end… but someone took the peanut butter cookie so I can’t make my one… just found yours and it looks sensational… just hoping the recipe will work well with ingredients from Australia and it’s not too rich from them… I’m from Brazil so there isn’t such a thing as too sweet for me but they are a bit different down under! Thanks for sharing ?
