Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies

Aug 29, 2023 (2 Comments)

Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies

Lately I've been focused on creating protein-rich recipes that are quick and easy to make. These peanut butter sandwich cookies are bite-size energy treats that I keep in the refrigerator so they're a bit firm and have some crunch when I bite into them. If you keep them at room temperature they have a softer bite.

I use a bit more peanut butter in this cookie recipe than in my first peanut butter cookie recipe. I also use more peanut butter in the filling for this cookie, but if you prefer a lighter, creamy frosting, you can use my nut buttercream frosting for the filling. And, of course, you can just eat the cookies without a filling too.

I've only tested peanut butter with this cookie recipe, but I suspect other nut and seed butters will work well. If you use sunflower seed butter, it's likely the cookies will turn green, which could be kinda cool.

      Hi Ruth. If you don't mind pieces of peanuts in your cookies I think it will work just fine.
