“Hi Sarah! I haven’t tried this. It’s possible it might work, but the cookies won’t turn out the same. PBfit has far less fat than real peanut butter, so the dough will be much drier and the cookies won’t hold together well or get that soft, chewy texture. If y” — a cook
“Great recipe! I made them using skippy chunky peanut butter, and I also added a little bit of coconut. What worked really nice is after baking them. Set sheet on top of the counter, slide the parchment paper with the cookies on top and they cooled on the parc” — a cook, 5.0★
