For those of you unfamiliar with Lily’s sugar-free chocolate chips, I found them to be like dark chocolate in flavor and harder in texture than Hershey’s Sugar-Free Chocolate Chips which are sweetened with maltitol. This was the first time I used Lily’s Sugar-Free Chocolate Chips, which are sweetened with erythritol and stevia. Many recipes use natural organic ground peanut butter and others use almond butter, but I just used regular creamy peanut butter from the grocery store - Skippy Natural Creamy Peanut Butter, and yes, it does have added sugar listed in the ingredients. Some call for sugar and others are refined sugar-free and some of the recipes work while others don’t. There are a bazillion gluten-free peanut butter cookie recipes available on the internet using nothing but peanut butter as the base.

The original recipe for these peanut butter chocolate chip cookies was full of sugar, but we tinkered with it to make a great low carb and sugar-free version, and one easy enough for my 10 year old to prepare herself. She immediately found gluten-free things she liked and began to gather some recipes into a cookbook – a special cookbook for only herself and mommy to use together.
#COOKIE CRISP PEANUT BUTTER HOW TO#
My son is beginning to expect dessert after dinner and he even gave me the “stink eye” the other day when I told him that there was none! But I do my best to provide balance throughout the week and how could I turn my daughter down when she finally (after many years) expressed a desire to bake with me?Īfter proclaiming her boredom for the umpteenth time the other day, I pulled-up Pinterest and showed her how to do a search. Unfortunately since starting this blog a year ago, my family has had access to more treats than in previous years. I’m careful to remind them that mommy’s treats are healthier than regular treats but that they are still treats and “treats are a sometimes food”. My kids have been begging for these low carb peanut butter cookies all week and I haven’t minded indulging them putting one in their school lunch and letting them have a couple with a glass of milk as an after school snack.
