1

Heat oven to 350° F.  Remove wrappers from chocolates; set aside.

2

Beat butter, sugar, peanut butter, water and vanilla in medium bowl unitl well blended.  Beat in egg.  Stir together flour, cocoa, salt and baking soda.  Gradually add to butter mixture, beating until well blended.

3

Divide dough into 30 equal balls (about 1 inch each). Roll in sugar (if desired). Place on ungreased cookie sheets and flatten to make 1- 1/2 inch circles.

Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until cookie edges are set.  Top each cookie with chocolate piece;  gently loosen cookie from sheet but leave on cookie sheet.

Allow heat from cookie sheet and cookie to soften chocolate.  (Chocolate will soften from bottom toward tip and becomes shiny--about 10 minutes)  Use toothpick or end of small paring knife to draw facial features on chocolate.  Cool completely. Allow chocolate to firm before finishing cookies.
