When peanut butter and chocolate come together it makes my heart sing. As long as I can remember, these have been some of my favorite cookies. They are so incredibly easy to make, and I love that. Being a toddler mom- we don’t have a whole lot of time for intricate recipes over here!
These cookies are creamy, dreamy and everyones favorite. Quick to go at parties, and catering events they are also one of the most popular menu item in my cafe, The Curious Kitchen!
Versatility! I love that you can substitute almost any candy in the middle and make them suitable for any event. Valentines day? Add a chocolate candy heart in the center! Christmas? Red and Green Peanut M&M’s! Halloween? How about some candy corn! Not only can you use just about any candy, you can also substitute pretty much any type of sugar. Turbinado, coconut sugar and brown sugar are my favorites!
Did I mention they are Gluten Free? Made with only four very simple ingredients, yes, these tasty treats are also gluten free. So, if you’ve got a few basic ingredients and about 20 minutes…give these cookies a go!
