Y’all, it’s the day you’ve been waiting for: by popular demand, we’re finally sharing the recipe for that ridiculously delicious Single-Serving Chocolate and Peanut Butter Cookie that Lindsay and I made on her episode of Tastemakers. The beauty of a single-serving cookie is that you can make one any day, any time and have zero guilt, ’cause hey: you just ate one. Scroll on for the recipe from her cookbook, Healthyish, and be sure to catch the entire episode if you missed it!
Single-Serving Chocolate and Peanut Butter Cookie
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter, preferably natural
- 2 heaping tablespoons quick-cooking or instant oats
- 1 teaspoon confectioners’ sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon semisweet chocolate chips
- flaky sea salt, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Stir the peanut butter, oats, sugar, and vanilla together in a small bowl until completely combined. Using your fingers, shape the mixture into a 2 1/2-inch-wie (6-cm), 1/2-inch-thick (12-mm) disk. Press the tines of a fork into the top of the cookie. Chill on parchment paper-lined plate in the freezer until firm, about 5 minutes.
- Once the cookie is cold and hard, melt the chocolate in 15-second bursts until stirrable. Spread half the chilled cookie with the chocolate, and sprinkle with a little flaky sea salt, if you like. The chocolate should set when it hits the cold cookie, but if it doesn’t, you can return it to the freezer for a minute or two.
