If we can make Low Sugar Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies, then surely we can add a little cocoa powder and make Low Sugar Flourless Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies, dontcha think??
It’s too easy.
I had the grand idea of baking these in muffin cups so that they’d take on the look of a peanut butter cup. Too bad that didn’t really work.
They look kinda cute in the muffin liners, but they didn’t really flatten enough to take on the shape of a peanut butter cup. We ate them anyway. It wasn’t a problem.

Low Sugar Flourless Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies
- 2 cups natural peanut butter
- ⅓ cup sucanat, honey, or brown sugar
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg
- Mix the ingredients together until smooth.
- Use a small or medium scoop to place dough balls on a cookie sheet, about two inches apart.
- Bake in a 350° oven for 10-12 minutes or until cookies are lightly browned.
- Allow them to sit on the cookie sheet for a few minutes before removing them to cool on a rack.
The flavor of these cookies is super delicious. These will give you a great chocolate peanut butter fix, without all the sugar or even flour!
I know I just shared this low sugar cookie list last week, but when it comes to cookies and cutting sugar, I want to be sure you know I have your back.

I get many of my best ideas from YOU. What other cookie recipes should I play with to see if I can create a low sugar version?
If you haven’t tried them yet…..try the coconut version I left in the comment section of your key lime recipe. They are yum………
Dear Laura,
These cookies are absolutely scrumptious. I used a mixture of almond and peanut butter, and they turned out perfect! I now have a challenge to offer you: how about experimenting a flourless ginger cookie for us? :)
Thank you, thank you!
