KETO Chocolate Dipped Peanut Butter Cookies

By Leave a Comment

Chocolate Dipped Peanut Butter Cookies

For this recipe, I was inspired by our 3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies and my want for oatmeal cookies.
Unfortunately oats are pretty high in carbs, so I decided to use chunky peanut butter for texture.
Then it came to me, everything is better covered in chocolate. & don’t lie… we both know you we’re thinking it to!

Ingredient:

  • 1/2 c. smooth peanut butter
  • 1/2 c. chunky peanut butter
  • 1/4 c. sugar substitute – I use Swerve Granular
  • 1/4 c. brown sugar substitute – I use Swerve Brown
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 c. sugar free chocolate chips – I use these
  • 1 1/2 tbsp. butter, softened

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
  2. Combine peanut butters, 1 tbsp. butter, sugar substitutes and egg together in a large bowl.
  3. Using a cookie scoop, scoop the dough onto a baking sheet evenly spaced apart
  4. Bake for 10-12 minutes, let them completely cool
  5. While cookies are cooling, melt the chocolate chips and remaining butter together until smooth
  6. Dip cookies half way in chocolate and place on parchment paper until chocolate is set – I put them in fridge to help accelerate this step
