Ingredients

• 24 chocolate sandwich cookies 
• 12 peanut butter cups 
• 2, 10 oz. Bags chocolate melting wafers 
• Coarse kosher salt (optional)

Tara Tips

• Melt the chocolate wafers in the microwave in 30-second intervals. Check and stir after each interval to ensure you don't overcook the chocolate
• Save your empty chocolate cookie pieces and crush in a bag with a rolling pin for an optional garnish

Directions

1. Separate the sandwich cookies and put the cream side on a baking sheet or platter lined with a silicone baking mat (or parchment paper). 
2. Set the spare cookie pieces aside (or crush for garnish in step 6)
3. Unwrap the peanut butter cups and place on 12 of the cookies. 
4. Place the empty cookie halves onto the peanut butter cups to make sandwiches (use gentle pressure to stick them together)
5. Empty the chocolate wafers into a microwave-safe bowl and heat until chocolate is melted smooth. 
6. Using two forks or a pair of disposable gloves, coat each cookie sandwich in melted chocolate. Place on silicone mat.
7. Sprinkle the tops of the cookie sandwiches with sea salt or crushed cookie pieces  
8. Refrigerate for 20 minutes, or until the chocolate is set & enjoy!
