Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Gluten Free All Purpose Flour
  • 1/2 cup Cocoa Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/2 cup Softened Butter
  • 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1/2 cup Frozen Creamy Peanut Butter

Instructions
 

  • Prior to baking, scoop the creamy peanut butter into 12 small dollops on a parchment-lined plate and freeze them until completely solid.
  • Preheat the oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together, then mix in the egg until smooth.
  • Stir in the gluten free all purpose flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda until a thick chocolate dough is formed.
  • Scoop a portion of dough, flatten it, place a frozen creamy peanut butter dollop in the middle, and seal the dough around it completely.
  • Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, then let the cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes so the gooey lava center sets slightly.
