We think there is one thing that makes it even better, and that’s if you’re eating a peanut butter cookie that’s not only delicious but good for you too. We’ve combined the best of both worlds with these peanut butter cookies. We promise picky eaters won’t even know there’s no added sugar or flour and there’s a little extra protein inside. There are plenty of sweets, sugar and cookies around during the holidays, so making healthy alternatives is a great way to stay on track all winter long.
