Peanut Butter Cookies
I created this new recipe to make Sugar Free Peanut Butter Cookies using Monkfruit Sugar Free Sweetener. Monkfruit Sweetener is used 1 - 1 equal to regular Sugars.
I buy it in Granulated, Powdered and Brown.
This happens to be one of my favorite cookies. I love peanuts, peanut butter and these cookies.
These are very simple and that's one of the appealing things about them.
Here's what you'll need:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
A 1 1/2" Cookie Scoop
1 C Peanut Butter (your choice of Creamy or Crunchy)
1 C Monkfruit Powdered Sugar
1 Egg
1 TBS Vanilla
Add all ingredients to a Mixing Bowl and Mix to combine well.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Scoop the Dough using the Cookie Scoop onto the Sheet Pan.
Flatten each cookie with a fork in a criss-cross pattern. ( I use a small Fork dipped in hot water to make it easier to release the Fork)
Bake 8 - 10 minutes ( I baked mine for 8 minutes)
Remove Pan from the oven and cool on a rack for 10 minutes.
Transfer cookies to the rack and cool completely.
Enjoy!
