Fudge Puddles Recipe

Ingredients

Dough...

Ingredients:

1/2 c. butter or margarine, softened

1/2 c. creamy peanut butter

1/2 c. sugar

1/2 c. packed light brown sugar

1 egg

1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

1 1/4 c. all-purpose flour

3/4 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. salt

Fudge filling...

Ingredients:

1 c. (6 ounces) milk chocolate chips

1 c. (6 ounces) semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk

1 tsp. vanilla extract

Chopped nuts or peanut butter chips, or any topping you choose


Directions

To make cookies

In a mixing bowl, cream butter, peanut butter, and sugars; add egg and vanilla.
Stir together flour, baking soda and salt; add to creamed

mixture, mix well.

Chill. Shape into 48 balls, 1 inch each. Place in lightly greased mini-muffin tins.

Bake at 325 degrees for 14-16 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from oven and immediately make "wells" in the center of each by lightly pressing with a melon baller (or similar instrument). Cool in pans for 5 minutes, and then carefully remove to wire racks.

To fill
Melt chocolate chips in a double boiler over simmering water.

Stir in condensed milk and vanilla; mix well.

Using a small pitcher or

pastry bag, (I find a measuring tablespoon works great) fill each shell with filling.
Sprinkle with peanuts (or topping choice). Makes 4 dozen.
