Peanut butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

If this is your first visit to my recipes, welcome! If you are a returner, thank you!

I am a true believer that the world of food should be open to a person and moderation in all things is a great way to live life, that’s why I specialize in creating macro-friendly recipes that are much easier to “fit” in moderation.

As you get to know me, you will find that all my recipes use a moderate to few amount of ingredients because I also believe that cooking should be stress free and not break the budget. I encourage that for all of my recipes you look into buying frozen rather than fresh to promote longevity of each food item if you do not use it again right away.

I would also love to hear your personal spin on any of my recipes! Have fun and please enjoy!

I love sweets...That explains a lot I’m sure. But seriously I love chocolate and peanut butter as some of my top favorite sweet flavors. Also on that note, if I were picking cookies or cake, cookies would win every time. In this recipe you will find my ultra macro friendly peanut butter chocolate chip cookies. The batter to me was the best part! (Not that I’m ever suggesting eating raw egg is a good idea *wink* but hey, I had to test at each stage of the recipe's development you know?)

Quick tip: you can use Swerve for baking and it holds it’s sweetness well but with my IBS I have to stay very far away from Swerve, so I use Monk’s Fruit. I find Monk’s Fruit bakes better than Stevia without the IBS reaction of Swerve.

This recipe is suitable for bariatric patients, vegetarians, body builders, anyone who is practicing moderation or just someone looking for a delicious macro friendly dessert recipe to grace their next meal! (but then again with macros like that and no added sugar you could even use it as a protein rich snack!)
