Ingredients

Cookies

  • 260 g Eat Naked Peanut Butter
  • 50 g coconut sugar
  • 2 scoops vanilla protein powder vegan
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla essence
  • 2 large eggs

Chocolate Dip

  • 100 g Dark chocolate
  • crushed salted peanuts

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180C and line a baking tray with baking paper
  • Mix all the cookie ingredients together in a bowl until well combined and if too thick add a few drops of water
  • Scoop out a teaspoon of the mixture and roll into a ball using your hand.
    Place on baking sheet and press out with your fingers or a spoon. Space the cookies evenly on the baking tray with enough space for them to spread during baking 
  • Bake for 12 minutes or until golden brown. Leave to cool on the tray. 
  • To make the chocolate dip melt the chocolate and dip the cooled cookies in. return to the baking tray and sprinkle with crushed peanuts. 

Notes

  • The original recipe called for 100g or coconut sugar but because the Eat Naked Peanut Butter is sweetened with honey, I modified the recipe. 
  • You don't have to add protein powder - but if you do I recommend using either chocolate or vanilla flavour. I used Kauai vegan protein powder.
