Funny Bone Cookies

Funny Bone Cookies

After stuffing cookies with Devil’s food cake (Drake’s Devil Dogs) and Twinkies this week, it only seemed natural to stuff a very chocolatey cookie with a funny bone. Peanut Butter lovers, beware of the creamy peanut butter filling! These are dangerously delicious with an intense chocolate flavor! Funny Bone Cookies are a peanut butter with the perfect consistency and a chocolate lover’s dream cookie! A rich chocolate cake with a rich peanut butter creme center. You may also like Devil Dog Stuffed Cookies and Twinkie Cookies! Grab a box of Funny Bones, a glass of milk and get baking! These delicious treats look great on a large platter! You could even add a drizzle of chocolate glaze. Next, I will have to try stuffing cookies with the classic Drake’s variety of  Yodels and Ring Dings!
