Double Chocolate Peppermint Cookies

MY BOYFRIEND SAID THE NICEST THING TO ME TODAY! I baked these fresh double chocolate peppermint cookies today and asked Justin to try one!
He looks up and says…”did you put fudge in the middle” 🥺 I was about to cry. If that’s not a testament to how fudgey and delicious these cookies are…idk what will convince you


Ingredients:

1 cup peanut butter (I used PB Fit chocolate flavor)
1/2 cup cacao powder
1/2 cup coconut sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1 egg
1-2 tbsp flour – until batter is firm
1 tsp peppermint extract
1/2 cup Enjoy Life dairy free chocolate chips
(optional: 2 crushed candy canes for topping)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 F
2. Mix all ingredients into large bowl
3. Form into 1 inch balls and place on greased baking sheet
4. Sprinkle crushed candy canes on top (press them in a bit so they stick)
5. Chill batter in fridge or freezer until cold to touch! Batter that’s too warm will spread and melt in the oven – and make flat pancake cookies
6. Bake for 8-10 minutes
7. Let cool and enjoy! Happy holidays! ❤️
