“Mumma why are you not making any cookies, because of you I have to eat outside Junk†, These are the exact wording which came out of my 4.5 year old after returning from school. Now with this statement how can I not bake something special for my little monster?
So it’s the time to wear the apron and make an eye contact with my Morphy baby , which was staring me since two months. So I looked straight in to its eyes and said don’t worry sweetheart I’ll not disappoint you today. Let’s create something beautiful and delicious 😉
All right so I was set to bake a cookie, only question remaining was which one? And there it was a jumbo jar of peanut butter standing on slab winking at me. Lovely so I got my base ingredient “Crunchy Peanut Butterâ€. Rest was easy as all bakers know once you have your base ingredient; cookie is nothing but just a mix of flours and sweeteners.And if you are unsure just throw some dark cocoa and you are done.

All right enough about peanut butter; let’s talk about other ingredients now. So these cookies are completely APF and refined sugar free. Thankfully even after 2 months of baking break I still can’t stand the sight of white sugar.
