Gluten Free Peanut Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookies
These cookies are a peanut butter lover's dream. Made without any flour, this dough is super versatile and absolutely scrumptious.
Equipment
- Mixing Bowls
- Baking Sheet
- Oven
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar not packed
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 egg
- Pinch of salt
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 1/4 cup chocolate chunks
- sprinkles for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F
- In a mixing bowl, stir together sugars, baking powder, and salt.
- Add peanut butter, vanilla, and egg and stir together until you have a smooth batter. Add chocolate chips and fold them in so they're consistent throughout the batter.
- Wrap batter in plastic wrap and put in the fridge for 30-60 minutes to allow it to firm up
- Once firm, scoop batter into ~1 inch balls and place on a lined cookie sheet (I use silicone baking mats and swear by them)
- Top cookies with chocolate chunks, and press them into the dough so it flattens the cookies a bit
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the top is just firmed up. Cookies should still be quite soft, but they'll get firmer as they cool
- Allow cookies to cool on a cooling rack and then enjoy with a nice glass of milk!
