The 2008 Pillsbury Bake-Off Grand prize winner Carolyn Gurtz’s cookies are crunchy on the outside and creamy on the inside.

Ingredients
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup dry-roasted peanuts, finely chopped
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 (161/2-ounce) roll refrigerated peanut butter cookie dough, well chilled


Instructions
1. Combine peanut butter and powdered sugar; stir until completely blended. Shape mixture into 24 small balls. Refrigerate until firm.
2. Preheat oven to 375F.
3. Combine peanuts, granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
4. Working on wax paper, cut cookie dough roll into 12 slices. Cut each slice in half to make 24 pieces; flatten each piece. Shape 1 cookie dough piece around 1 peanut butter ball, covering completely. Repeat with remaining dough and balls. Sprinkle balls with peanut mixture.
