Sunbutter Cookie Recipe

Hey hey! I’m part of a cookie exchange blog hop today! My pal, Abigail, over at Paper and Cake, set this fun blog hop up and so today I’m sharing this yummy Sunbutter Cookie Recipe. We’ve got a nut allergy in my family and one of the things I’ve missed the most is peanut butter cookies. But when I realized that using Sunbutter tastes so super similar, I figured out how to fill my cookie void.

They are just as sweet and rich and nutty tasting (without the death peanuts) as regular peanut butter cookies. Mmmmmmm.

Nothing special. Just normal cookie making ingredients. And delicious, delightful Sunbutter. There aren’t any special steps. It’s basic cookie making. And a little bit of prayer since my oven runs hot and I, more often than not, burn EVERYTHING.

And to me, these cookies are not complete without being rolled in sugar and pressed down with a fork. It really is what sets them apart.

Turns out my nut allergic sun doesn’t really care for these cookies all that much. But at least I know that when I’m craving a peanut butter cookie, I can make these and make sure that he is safe. And can you imagine these dipped in a nice dark chocolate? Oh yeah!
