Cutlers Frosted Peanut Butter Cookies are amazing.  Every time I go to Cutlers, I want to get a Cutlers frosted peanut butter cookie and every time I seem to be too late and someone else has already bought them. So, I decided to come home and make my own. 

They even have the recipe on their site, but I did a few things different on the second go around of making these cookies.

• Frost the cookie with the peanut butter frosting first, then allow it to set up.
• Then frost on top of the peanut butter frosting with the chocolate frosting.

Then if you like frosting like I do, this is double the frosting!

One of the tricky parts about these cookies is that the cookie has peanut butter chips in them and not peanut butter. They are so good.
