Ingredients
PEANUT BUTTER CUP STUFFED CHOCOLATE CRINKLE COOKIES
- 15 Quest Mini Peanut Butter Cups
- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- ½ cup zero calorie sweetener
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ tsp cream of tartar
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 egg
- 5 tbsp butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 1 tbsp zero calorie sweetener, powdered
Method
- Preheat the oven to 350 F and prepare a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Unwrap the peanut butter cups and set aside.
- Place the almond flour, sweetener, cocoa powder, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt into a mixing bowl and whisk until well combined and no clumps remain.
- In another bowl, whisk the egg and then add in the melted butter and whisk until combined.
- Add in the dry ingredients and use a rubber spatula to mix until a dough comes together.
- Use a 1.5” cookie scooper to make 15 evenly sized balls. Press one of the peanut butter cups into the center and cover with dough, rolling it into a ball again.
- Repeat until you have used all the dough and peanut butter cups.
- Place the 1 tablespoon of powdered zero calorie sweetener into a bowl and roll each cookie dough ball in it.
- Transfer the cookie dough balls to a baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake for 9-11 minutes.
- Once you remove the cookies from the oven, use the bottom of a glass to press them down slightly. Let cool and serve.
