Peanut Butter Almond Cookies with Chocolate Chunks

Ever in the mood for making cookies but have no thawed butter and no mixer either?  Peanut butter cookies are the most delicious solution to this baking conundrum.  No butter, flour or mixers required.

This variation has a little almond paste which could be swapped for just peanut butter.

Also, these little guys are gluten free.



Ingredients

3/4 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup almond paste (could use almond butter)
pinch salt
1 large egg
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup dark chocolate chunks

1. Mix all ingredients together in a bowl with a spatula or a wooden spoon until smooth.

2. Roll dough into uniform balls and place on a lined baking sheet. Smoosh with a fork.  Bake for 7-10 minutes at 325F (depending on size).  Cookies should still be soft to the touch.  Cool on baking sheet.

I formed mine into 10g pieces.
