Flourless Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies-you will never know these rich and fudgy chocolate peanut butter cookies are made without flour. They are insanely delicious!
I think this is the first year that I didn’t buy any Easter candy. Not one bag. I usually stock up before and after the holiday. I love the day after sales. Not this year. I knew Caleb would get plenty of candy at our neighborhood Easter egg hunt, so I bought the boys, I mean the Easter bunny bought the boys, books and clothes instead. I just put his neighborhood candy in new eggs and he didn’t have a clue. I am sneaky like that.
It’s probably good that we don’t have a ton of candy lying around, but I have to tell you, I am bummed I didn’t get a Reese’s egg this year. I love those eggs! Why are they so good?
Instead of driving to the store to dig through the Easter candy sales, I decided to fulfill my chocolate peanut butter craving by making Flourless Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies. Problem solved!
I love making flourless cookies because they are so easy and I love seeing the look on people’s faces when I tell them that there is no flour in the cookies. They are always shocked! These cookies are gluten free? The looks are priceless! Again, I like being sneaky:)
You will never know flour is missing in these fudgy chocolate peanut butter cookies! These gluten-free cookies are super soft and super rich! They look like plain old chocolate cookies, but after one bite you will get the peanut butter surprise! Sneaky old me:)
I added chocolate chips to the cookies because why not? More chocolate is always a good idea!

Flourless Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies
Yield: 17 cookies
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 10-12 minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes
You will never guess that these rich and fudgy chocolate peanut butter cookies are gluten-free! They are SO good!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with a Silpat baking mat or parchment paper and set aside.
2. In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the peanut butter and sugar together until creamy and smooth. Add in the egg and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
3. Add the baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder. Mix until just combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
4. Scoop the dough, about 1 tablespoon each, onto prepared baking sheet. Gently press down on the dough mounds with the back of a spoon or palm of your hand to slightly flatten. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Remove from oven and allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Note-I like to stick a few extra chocolate chips on top of the cookies before baking. Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days on the counter. These cookies also freeze well!
