This recipe didn’t turn out as I had hoped. The cookies were extremely crumbly. I wasn’t even able to make the full cookies. The cream filling was pretty tasty but would have liked a more solid cookie.
These are amazing! I ended up eating like 4 of them they were just so good. Thank you I’ll def be making these again soon.
I doubled the recipe and made big peanut shaped cookies. I undercooked them slightly so that they were soft and not too flaky. That and the recipe for the filling verbatim was absolutely perfect. Already making it for the second time.
That sounds delicious!
I’ve been following you since you began. I havent masters all the weight loss, but my blood work is prestine?You both are just great!!
Love the Recipe ❣
Amazing! Huge congrats to you!
I made the Nutter butter Peanut Butter cookies. I followed the directions exactly. However, they were very soft and crumbly! When i tried to put the filling in they fell apart. Good flavor. But had to pick up the crumbs with a spoon Definitely NOT a cookie success. 🙁
Very tasty, but I think next time I will make a pb frosting with Swerve confectioners sugar rather than the whipped cream based filling.
How do I substitute allulose?
I know the servings say sandwhich, but is the nutrition correct that its for 1 whole cookie sandwhich and not for just 1 cookie?
I am so obsessed with these cookies. It is by far the most successful Keto dessert I have made so far. I use a bit less sweetener in both the cookie and filling, Thank for this recipe.
So glad you love them!
I have liquid stevia but it is vanilla creme flavored. Would this be okay? I think it would compliment the peanut butter flavor. Thoughts? Thanks in advance and also Congratulations on your little sweetie pie Theo!!!
Sounds like it would be delicious!
Mine crumbled so bad they were not salvageable so I will use the crumbs as the bottom of a cheese cake. . Thanks.
Question? How do you store these cookies. I’m cooking for myself so most recipes are a dozen or more so I need this info before attempting to make these…
Thank you both for your time in posting these great recipes..?
You’ll want to keep them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Or you could try freezing a portion of the dough to pull out at a later date!
I tried looking through the comments to see if someone already asked this. Is the serving size for 8 sandwich cookies? Or just 8 cookies equaling 4 large sandwich cookies. Just want to be sure.
These turned out great! So delicious. They didn’t crumble like others noted. I made double filling and using it as cookie butter. I’m going to make these from now on. So delicious!!! Thank you for the best peanut butter cookie recipe!
Just made these. My filling looked lighter and fluffier but tasted amazing
I personally like Splenda…I know it gets a bad rep…but I personally like the taste over erythritol and stevia. Does anybody know the ratio of Splenda to erythritol and stevia usage? That would help me TREMENDOUSLY. Thanks in advance ?
I am not exactly sure. I know swerve (which is erythritol) is almost a 1:1 ration with real white sugar. You can check out our sweetener conversion chart but it doesn’t include splenda
I’m going to try using swerve instead of stevia, I’m not fond of stevia after taste.
OMG! Iam known to be a horrible baker, but made these last night. My daughter and I couldn’t eat enough!. I have more in the oven today! Bravo to you. We love your site and recipes.
