Chocolate Dipped Peanut Butter Cookies - flourless cookies made with 3 ingredients, dipped in chocolate and chopped peanuts. Soft, chewy and delicious!

Another favorite is my Peanut Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookies recipe. You have to try it!

Peanut butter and chocolate is one of our favorite dessert combos. You can't go wrong with it! These Chocolate Dipped Peanut Butter Cookies are a spin off on my Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies. This time I used brown sugar that made the cookies ultra soft and chewy. Dipping them in melted semi-sweet chocolate is the perfect finishing touch. That and the chopped peanuts that add a nice crunch.

These Chocolate Dipped Peanut Butter Cookies could not be easier to make! They also disappear fast so maybe consider making a double batch.

Ingredients:

This recipe requires only 3 ingredients plus the melted chocolate and chopped peanuts. So 5 ingredients in all.

  • peanut butter
  • sugar
  • egg
  • chocolate chips
  • peanuts

This cookie recipe is so simple, the kids can make it themselves. Especially, since no complicated measuring is required and we are not using a mixer. Besides, dipping cookies in chocolate is always fun!

    Can we add the chocolate chips in the cookie instead of dipping?

    I wanted to know if the dough can be made and refrigerated or frozen and if so how long for each? Thank you.

      Hi Amber! Thank you for the question! You can make the dough, roll into balls and freeze. Store in ziploc bag up to 3 months. Thaw out before baking, then dip in chocolate. I hope this helps!
