No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies Recipe – Easy Low Carb, Keto, Gluten Free Cookies without oatmeal – with the full video tutorial.
No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies Recipe
This no bake chocolate peanut butter cookies recipe is really quick and easy to prepare. You simply combine all of the ingredients together, form into cookies and allow to set in the fridge.
I make fairly large sized cookies and get 12 out of my cookie dough. If you’d prefer smaller, bite sized cookies then you will get more cookies from the recipe.
No Bake Cookie Ingredients
Here’s an overview of the ingredients you’ll need for these cookies.
Flaked Almonds – any chopped nuts will work here, I like the streamlined texture of flaked almonds, so that’s what I’ve used.
Shredded Coconut – you can use shredded or desiccated coconut to help bulk out and flavor the cookies.
Peanut Butter – I’ve used smooth peanut butter, but you can use crunchy peanut butter instead for a more nutty texture.
Stevia – my sweetener of choice is usually stevia. (Here’s stevia on Amazon.) You can use whatever sweetener you like instead. Or, if you don’t want them to be low carb/sugar free then you can feel free to use any sugar you have in your kitchen.
Use a third to half a cup of your sweetener of choice, depending how sweet you’d like your cookies to be.
Butter – I’ve used unsalted butter in this recipe. You can make the cookies dairy free, paleo and vegan friendly by swapping the butter for a quarter of a cup of coconut oil instead.
Chocolate – I used cacao powder that I found at ALDI, but you could use cocoa powder instead for the chocolate flavor.
