Scale
- 1cup natural peanut butter
- 2 tablespoonsSwerve Brown Sugar
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 1/4 cup crushed peanuts (optional)
- Chocolate Coating:
- 1/2 cup whole fat coconut milk (cashew milk for Keto Heart Healthy)
- 4 ounces Baker’s Unsweetened Chocolate (or favorite Keto compliant chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons Swerve Brown Sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the oven rack in the upper and lower third of the oven. Spray two non-stick baking sheets lightly with cooking spray or cover with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, add all 3 ingredients. Using a handheld mixer, mix the ingredients together. (Fold in nut pieces if using). Use wet hands to pull the dough into a ball. Spoon about 1 level tablespoon of the mixture (about 1 inch apart) onto the baking sheets. Flatten the mounds with the tines of a fork, making a crosshatch pattern on the cookies. (Use fingers to flatten cookies if you have added the nut pieces).
- Bake until golden around the edges, about 10 minutes. Let cool.
- To make chocolate add coconut milk to non-stick pan. Heat on low. Add chocolate and sweetener. Stir, using a rubber spatula until well blended, melted, and thick. Use the back of a small spoon to add chocolate to the top of each cookie. Add additional nut pieces if desired.
Notes
- Store cookies in an air-tight container on the counter for up to 2 weeks. If stored in the refrigerator cookies will last up to a month. Freeze cookies for up to 6 months and warm to room temperature before eating.
