Form into small 1-inch balls. Set aside. Cream together sugars, margarine, and peanut butter until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. Stir in flour, cocoa, and soda. Dough should be very soft. With floured hands, take about 1 T dough and wrap it around a peanut butter, covering it completely. Roll the ball in your hands to smooth it. Place balls 2" apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten them with the bottom of a glass dipped in sugar. Bake at 375 for 7-9 min or until set and slightly cracked. Cool on wire racks. Yields about 30 cookies. |
