👩🍳 Instructions
-
1
In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine the peanut butter, powdered sweetener, and 2 tablespoons of melted coconut oil (or butter). Microwave for 30-60 seconds on medium heat, until warm and easy to stir.
-
2
Remove from microwave and stir vigorously until the mixture is smooth and the sweetener is fully dissolved.
-
3
Stir in the coconut flour, vanilla extract, and pinch of salt until a thick, pliable dough forms. If too dry, add 1/2 tsp more melted coconut oil; if too wet, add 1/2 tsp more coconut flour.
-
4
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop out about 1.5 tablespoons of the mixture for each cookie, roll into a ball, and then flatten into a 1/2-inch thick disc. Create a crosshatch pattern with a fork if desired.
-
5
Arrange cookies on the baking sheet and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
-
6
While cookies chill, prepare the chocolate topping: In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine sugar-free chocolate chips and 1 teaspoon of coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until melted and smooth.
-
7
Remove chilled cookies from the fridge. Dip each cookie halfway into the melted chocolate, or drizzle chocolate over the tops. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt if using.
-
8
Return the cookies to the refrigerator for another 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate has fully set. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
💡 Notes
Ensure your peanut butter is natural and sugar-free for best keto results. For a firmer cookie, you can increase the coconut flour by an additional 1/2 teaspoon. These cookies can be frozen for longer storage; thaw slightly before enjoying.
