Equipment
- Baking Sheet
- Parchment Paper
Ingredients
Cookie Base
- 3/4 cup creamy natural peanut butter
- 1/4 cup butter softened
- 2/3 cup Swerve Brown sweetener
- 1 egg large
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup peanut flour or peanut butter powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
Chocolate Center
- 3 oz keto chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp creamy natural peanut butter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325°F and line a baking sheet with parchment or silicone liner.
- In a large bowl, beat the peanut butter and softened butter until creamy. Mix in the sweetener, then add the egg and vanilla – beat until smooth.
- Stir in the almond flour, peanut flour, baking soda, and salt until a soft dough forms.
- Roll dough into 1-inch balls and place 2 inches apart on the prepared sheet. Gently press each ball with your palm to about ½ inch thick.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes until puffy and lightly golden. As soon as they come out, use the back of a rounded teaspoon to make a small well in the center of each cookie. Let cool completely.
- For the filling: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips and 2 tbsp peanut butter together in 30-second bursts, stirring until smooth.
- Spoon a little of the melted chocolate into each cookie well. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes until the chocolate is firm.
