Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Bites
When I was younger, I won’t lie, I was ALWAYS sneaking some leftover cookie dough from the mixing bowl. Eating raw cookie dough is obviously not the safest thing to do, so with that being said, I have lived for the edible cookie dough craze! So here is my healthy take on it!
For the peanut butter in this recipe, I used some of this peanut butter powder. Any nut or seed butter will work great here, however.
Peanut Butter Cookie Dough:
-1/2 cup peanut butter powder mixed with 1/4 cup + 1 tbsp water
-1 cup almond flour (any flour will work besides coconut)
-1/4 cup maple syrup
-1 tsp vanilla extract
-pinch of sea salt
-1/2 cup chocolate chips or chopped chocolate bar
Mix peanut butter + almond flour + maple syrup + vanilla extract + sea salt in a mixing bowl until a cookie dough-like consistency is formed (may need to add an extra 1-2 tablespoons of flour to thicken), then fold in chocolate chips
Place in the fridge for 30 minutes to set
Use a cookie scoop or heaping tablespoon to form dough bites, let set in the fridge once again, and enjoy!
*Store in an air tight container for up to 5 days, or freeze for later.
