My family is fully peanut butter obsessed! So it’s important to have a holiday recipe for peanut butter cup cookies! This is by far the best grain-free, protein-full version of peanut butter cup cookies that I’ve ever come up with. 

Which is why you’ll never see me make a single batch…double batch or nothing!

My freezer is full of these tasty morsels...ready for an after dinner sweet tooth attack :)
