Candice’s Low Carb Ultimate Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
Now these are peanut galore here! Not something I will eat everyday, but a nice treat once in a while! They have a bit of a different texture then my other peanut butter cookie recipes because I used peanut flour here. Not a bad thing, just a little different. And a bit moister then the recipe using coconut flour, so that's a plus!
Hope you enjoy!
