These delicious, 5-Ingredient flourless peanut butter cookies are so easy to make and naturally gluten free.
I couldn’t resist dipping these flourless peanut butter cookies into dark chocolate once they were cooled. But you certainly could skip the extra step and enjoy the peanut butter cookies as-is, sans the chocolate.

where do the 4.6 grams sugar come from? The erythritol? The chocolate?

Hi Dani, can I use other sugar than erythritol? I don’t like the taste of it.
Patti
I would like to know the answer to Winnie’s question as well!

Yes! Any granulated sugar will work in its place. It’s a 1:1 swap.
