Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies and Lunch Ideas

by Laura

I saw this recipe for flourless peanut butter chocolate chip cookies a little bit ago on Two Peas and A Pod who adapted this recipe from Joy the Baker. Maria at Two Peas in a Pod is a real cookie connoisseur. So I really wanted to try this recipe. Plus my son has a friend with a gluten allergy and I thought maybe I could have these for when he’s at our home.

They would also be an excellent treat to whip up for an after school snack or to toss into a sack lunch for school. They turned out great. I did ask my family if they prefer these or my regular PB cookie. They all prefer the regular PB cookie I make, but this still was a great cookie.

Today, I also wanted to share some school lunch ideas that I came across recently. One of the biggest tips was to mix up what you use to put the sandwiches on whether it be rolls, a hot dog bun, tortilla, or mini bagels. There are all kinds of fun options out there.

A great idea that sounded yummy to me was to make a sandwich using raisin bread, then spread a slice of bread with reduced fat cream cheese and raspberry jam. Then fold the slice of bread diagonally and pinch edges to seal. Then you create a triangular pocket type sandwich. Sounded fabulous to me.

that sounds interesting. no butter or oil too? i guess the PB provides all the fat you need for the cookie.
