Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies are some of the softest, chewiest, and most delicious chocolate chip cookies I have ever taken a bite out of. Plus, they can be gluten-free if you choose gluten-free oats. If you want a traditional cookie, give my Chocolate Chip Cookie or Classic Chocolate Chip and Peanut Butter Cookie a try!
Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
This easy-to-make Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe is a melt-in-your-mouth cookie that has all the chewy texture and peanut butter taste you would expect from a cookie.
Do I Have To Chill The Dough Before Baking Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies?
There is one very important step when making these cookies. The chilling. And if you don’t chill the dough it will change its texture and consistency. I found out that folks often skip the chilling, and it can dramatically change the final result I highly recommend that you do NOT SKIP CHILLING. Plus, it gives you some time to chill yourself! 😉
Can I Freeze These Cookies?
Yes! In fact, you can freeze the baked cookies or cookie dough.
To Freeze Cookie Dough: To freeze the cookie dough, put the portioned balls of dough on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper. Freeze those for about an hour before transferring them to an airtight container. To bake, simply add more bake time for the frozen dough.
To Freeze Cookies After Baking: If your cookies have already been baked, make sure you let the cookies cool completely before freezing. Individually wrap each cookie in plastic wrap and store in an airtight container. These will last 1-3 months! I actually like a slightly frozen chocolate chip cookie!

Could honey be subbed for part of the sugar? Trying to use more natural ingredients if possible. They sound fabulous, can’t wait to try these!
Can I use any sugar free sugar as a substitute for the brown sugar / sugar In this recipe?
I don’t see why not, I usually do in the recipes that I make.
These cookies are so yummy! Soft and chewy and so delicious. The raw batter is also delicious. Next time I make them I might add slightly less sugar, but I might not! 😁
How about quick cooking oats?
Would is be possible to substitute sunflower butter instead of a nut butter?
These look great! For nut allergies, can the peanut butter be omitted entirely? Would any of the ingredients need to be adjusted in its absence?
This is a peanut butter cookie, definitely going to need the peanut butter.
Has anyone made these at high altitude? What changes did you make to the recipe? Thanks!
Has anyone tried converting this recipe to bars? I feel 70 fellow faculty members at monthly meeting and siz batches (to give everyone one cookie) isn’t going to fly. I bake in a 12×18 pan.
