For a gluten-free snack that hits all the cozy warm memories of home, these peanut butter chocolate chip cookies win!
They are soft and fluffy, chocolatey and peanut buttery, and totally addicting! They are also quite filling. So, after eating about two, you won’t feel like you need to eat the whole pan (which let’s be honest, is a huge plus for all of us sweets lovers out there!). These cookies come together in no time at all and can be totally customized to fit what you are looking for! You could try adding dried cranberries for more a peanut butter and jelly feel or omit the chocolate all together and just have peanut butter cookies! No matter what you choose, these are sure to be a crowd pleaser.
