flourless peanut butter cookies

How To Make flourless peanut butter cookies

• Step 1
  In a bowl, add the creamy and chunky peanut butter, plus the granulated sugar; beat together until smooth. (I used a hand held mixer to cream the mixture together.)
• Step 2
  Add the eggs and vanilla extract; beat until well combined.
• Step 3
  Using a spoon; stir in the flaxseed.
• Step 4
  Take a tablespoon of the dough, and shape by hand into a ball. (I used a small Pampered Chef Scoop, which is equal to 1 tablespoon.)
• Step 5
  Slightly flatten the dough balls with the palms of your hands, and then place them onto Pampered Chef Baking Stones. (I place 12 onto each baking stone 2-inches apart.)
• Step 6
  Press the top of each cookie down "gently" with a fork.
• Step 7
  Bake in a 350Fº oven for 12 minutes, then remove, and let the cookies set on baking stone(s) for 5 minutes, before removing to a wire rack and allowing the cookies to cool completely.
• Step 8
  *Note: Adding flaxseed to this recipe is optional, but if you decide not to add the flaxseed, you may need to chill the dough in the refrigerator for a couple hours before baking. This helps to firm up the cookie dough, plus it makes it a lot easier for handling the cookie dough.
• Step 9
  Additional Note: I like to freeze these cookies in a Tupperware container, and just take out what I want to eat for later.
