Who doesn’t love a cookie recipe! The smell that fills the house when you bake a batch of these is heavenly! The hardest part of baking these beauties is not eating the whole batch in once go. I love eating mine while the cookies ares till a bit warm and chocolate is a bit melted still.
I created this recipe to celebrate Cocoa+ limited edition milk chocolate, it is so delicious and creamy and I hate to say it on par with Dairy Milk (my ultimate fave). But any chocolate will work perfectly in this recipe.
Now can we talk peanut butter… my favourite thing ever, and this recipes main ingredient! I’ve tried this recipe using both a creamy peanut butter (the harder type) and a natural runny kind and it works perfectly with both, that’s thanks to the egg which holds everything together nicely! My absolute favourite peanut butter is Pics… you won’t find a better brand, I challenge you!
I made this recipe flourless because while the UK is in lockdown, flour can be hard to find on the shelves and to be honest this recipe is so delicious without it! The crispy top and gooey centre it’s the perfect cookie texture.
I would love to hear from you if you give this recipe a try. Tag me on Facebook and instagram in your photos.
