Flourless Almond and Peanut Butter Cookies + Giveaway!

Guys, it’s time for a fun giveaway, but first let’s talk cookies.  Like some of the best cookies I’ve ever made.  Cookies that prove in a lot of cases more is better.

In these cookies, my favorite Flourless Almond Butter Cookies meet my favorite Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies to make giant super cookies.  Yeah, super cookies.  They’re a thing now.

Flourless Almond and Peanut Butter Cookies + Giveaway!

First, these cookies are a breeze to make.  No creaming or pulling out the stand mixer and dirtying a million dishes.  No chilling in the refrigerator waiting impatiently for the dough to be ready to be baked.  Measure, mix, scoop, bake.  I may have made these in the morning and ate them hot from the oven.  #sorrynotsorry #cookiesforbreakfast

Now let’s talk about why the combination of these two cookies that are totally craveable on their own makes them even better.  The almond butter cookies bake up flat and relatively crunchy while the peanut butter cookies puff and are super moist and rich.  Together, they make wonderful cookie babies.  That just happen to be gluten free!

On the bottom is the crunchy almond cookie which bakes around the gooey peanut butter cookie.  Eat one before the other, eat them together, melt marshmallows on top.  Whatever you do, just make these cookies.

Now back to that super awesome giveaway.  My friends at Peanut Butter and Company are going to give one lucky reader 1 jar of Old Fashioned Smooth Peanut Butter and 1 jar of Bestie Almond Butter.  You will just love them.  Use them to make the cookies, awesome PBJs, or spread them on a banana or apple.

    My favorite this time of year are sugar cookie cutouts. We have some Halloween themed cutter and our kids enjoy decorating those as much as they do carving their pumpkins.

    Goodness, those look so delicious. I am pretty simple when it comes to cookies. I love a good sugar cookie and chocolate chip too.

    My favorite cookie is a Linzer cookie! I have made them and there were delicious but were time consuming.

    I would say my favorite cookies are peanut butter cookies with butterscotch chips in them. Is that an odd combination, lol? I love them.

    It is hard to name just one favorite cookie! I have a great recipe for peanut butter cookies that calls for white chocolate chips–the family loves them! I also love crisp sugar cookies (that have been frosted by my kids) and crisp snickerdoodles. oh, I love peanut butter cereal bars (no-bake), too.
