In this guide, we will walk you through the entire process, from beginning to end, so you can make these delicious cookies at home.

Another day, another cookie recipe. Not just any cookie recipe, but in my opinion one of the best peanut butter cookie recipes. Let’s start with the obvious fact that these are flourless peanut butter cookies, that the recipe calls for 3 ingredients only, that they are a breeze to make, you will need to clean only one bowl, and you can trash them up with so many mix ins and toppings. They are ready in 30 minutes start to finish, and you may need another 30 minutes to just eat all of them without sharing a crumb, they are that good.
These are the most dense and filling cookies you will ever have, soft, crumbly, sweet and very fragrant. Since I am that person who just loves adding “stuff” to her cookies, I have loaded these with mini Reese’s cups and peanut butter M&M’s, basically, its peanut butter, in peanut butter, and again in peanut butter. I think its obvious that you have to like peanut butter to like these cookies, as there is no way to skip it, hide from it, or avoid it, its everywhere, and thats the good thing about them.
And if that crazy amount of mix ins goodness wasn’t enough to make these cookies irresistible, I dipped them in chocolate, ok, in a thick layer of chocolate and covered them in sprinkles, just because I love sprinkles and totally used to eat them by spoon and add them to my morning cereal. I know, I have issues, but I have tasty issues so I am ok “dealing” with them. I also covered some in chocolate and peanut butter M&Ms.
I guess you can see why I call them the ultimate flourless peanut butter cookies, because they are a dream come true, thick, dense, sweet and they host so much peanut butter, that would feed a small family for one week. Your arms can actually get an workout while eating these cookies, they are on the heavy side, here is the exercise: grab the cookie, take a bite, place the cookies on the plate and repeat until the cookie is gone. Total workout I am telling you!
See, these are full of benefits, and they are even high in protein from the peanut butter and eggs, so you just had your workout and the post workout snack at the same time. Double winner for me.
Now go make some, and indulge in every single bite!
