Description

These Chocolate Peanut Butter No Bake Cookies are a delicious and easy treat made with wholesome ingredients like coconut flour, peanut butter, and sweetened naturally with maple syrup. Perfect for a quick snack or dessert, these cookies are made without an oven and coated in rich melted chocolate, then chilled to set for a fudgy, satisfying bite.

Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup coconut flour

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 cups peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup

Coating

  • 2 cups chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare the workspace: Line a large baking sheet or plate with parchment paper and set aside to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  2. Mix the cookie base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the coconut flour, peanut butter, and maple syrup. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are fully incorporated into a consistent dough.
  3. Shape the cookies: Using your hands, take small portions of the dough to form balls. Place each ball on the lined baking sheet or plate and gently press down to flatten into cookie shapes. Then place the entire tray in the freezer to allow the cookies to firm up.
  4. Melt the chocolate: While the cookies firm up, melt the chocolate chips carefully either in a microwave-safe bowl using short bursts of heat or over a double boiler, stirring frequently to achieve smooth, melted chocolate.
  5. Coat the cookies: Once the cookies are firm, use two forks to dip each cookie into the melted chocolate, ensuring each is fully covered. Return the dipped cookies to the parchment-lined tray.
  6. Set the chocolate: Place the chocolate-coated cookies in the refrigerator until the chocolate hardens and the cookies are fully set, which usually takes about 15–30 minutes.

Notes

  • Use natural peanut butter with no added sugar for a healthier version.
  • If coconut flour causes dryness, add a tablespoon of almond milk to the mixture for smoother dough.
  • Substitute maple syrup with honey if preferred.
  • Make sure cookies are fully chilled before dipping to avoid melting the chocolate too much.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
  • Prep Time: 10 minutes
  • Cook Time: 0 minutes (no baking involved, only chilling time)
