Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add 1 cup peanut butter (or almond butter, cashew butter, or tahini) and 1/3 cup maple syrup. Mix until smooth and evenly combined.
  • Fold 1 cup chocolate chips into the peanut butter mixture until evenly distributed.
  • For thicker cookies, cover the bowl and chill: freeze for 1 hour OR refrigerate for 2 hours. If you prefer not to chill, proceed immediately.
  • Remove the bowl from the freezer or refrigerator (if chilled). Using your hands, divide the dough into 12 equal portions and roll each into a ball. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly.
  • Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the cookies are firm around the edges and slightly set in the center.
  • Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool completely on the sheet before removing.
