Peanut butter (chocolate filled) cookies
It occurred to me: I had never made peanut butter cookies. Gasp.
So I found a stand-out recipe (based on the peanut butter to dry ingredients ratio) and dove in.
Nothing tricky here. The dough (which is delicious) is crumbly. Pop it in the fridge for an hour and it's easily balled up and ready to bake. Not willing to leave well enough alone, I guess, I highly (highly highly) recommend making a circular divot in these cookies when they're right from the oven. Something round and about the size of a bottle cap will do. While the cookies are cooling, slowly melt in the microwave a cup of chocolate chips and a tablespoon or so of milk.
Pour into the divots and let cool completely. The chocolate will solidify -- and the cookies will be very good.
