5-Ingredient peanut butter cookies are a healthy, flourless recipe that is easy to make. Made with peanut butter, egg, coconut sugar and vanilla these peanut butter cookies are rich, dense, and perfectly sweetened. Dip them into dark chocolate for one last layer of yum and enjoy!
I love making a double recipe so I can keep some in the freezer to enjoy throughout the week. They are also great for gifting during the holiday season.

5-INGREDIENT PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
1 cup all-natural peanut butter (I used salted)
1 egg
1/2 cup coconut sugar or monk fruit
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 ounces dark chocolate
1 teaspoon coconut oil
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper, a Silpat mat or lightly coat with cooking spray. In a large bowl, stir together cookie dough ingredients (peanut butter, egg, monk fruit, or coconut sugar and vanilla) until fully combined.
Scoop a heaping tablespoon of the dough into your hands and form a ball, then flatten out into a disc-like cookie shape. Place on a baking sheet and repeat until you have worked through all of the dough. Using a large fork, flatten cookies slightly then turn the fork going in the opposite direction and flatten just slightly again (this will create a criss-cross pattern).
Bake cookies for 10-12 minutes or until the cookies are cooked through, golden brown, and fragrant. Cool to room temperature.
Melt chocolate in the microwave or in a double boiler. Stir coconut oil into melted chocolate. Dip one-third of the cookie into the chocolate and then place it back on the cookie sheet. Sprinkle with a bit of flaky sea salt and repeat until you have worked through all of the cookies. Place the baking sheet in the fridge for one hour or until the chocolate has been set up. Enjoy!
NOTES
For the sweetener, you can swap in any type of granulated sugar you have or prefer, they all work!
Storage: Keep cookies stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Freezing Instructions: Cookies can be frozen for up to 2 months, then thawed overnight in the refrigerator or at room temperature before enjoying.

Learn The Beauty Tips Of The Pros
Feeling great and looking beautiful at all times is essential for many women to be happy, but it’s hard to be beautiful 24 hours a day, unless you know the right beauty tricks. Whether you want to be glamorous or prefer a natural look, this article contains the solid tips to help you stay gorgeous morning, noon and night.
Allow your hair to dry naturally as much as you can to best protect it. Between the curling and straightening irons and the hair dryer, you can put entirely too much heat stress on your hair and scalp. If you do need to use a blow dryer, put it on the lowest possible setting. This ensures that your hair will be kept soft and silky for many years.
Never skip exfoliation when it comes to facial care. Get rid of dead skin cells by gently exfoliating your skin. Do this up to three times a week if you need to. This will make your face appear more radiant and fresh and will prevent buildup of oils and dirt.
Plain yogurt can be used as a calcium-rich, beautifying skin treatment that will leave your body looking fresh and youthful. This technique is especially effective for those who are suffering from tightness or excessive dryness. Slather it on, then allow it to sit for about five minutes. After you rinse it off, your skin will be softer and silkier.
Use a deep conditioner at least once a week for extra soft and healthy hair. Pick one day of the week to take a bath and read a magazine or listen to music while the deep conditioner soaks into your hair before rinsing. Many hair product lines include a matching deep conditioner.
To keep hair from turning gray, eat some curry leaf chutney, about a teaspoonful, every day. It allows the hair pigment to stay strong as you age. You can also add to your hair some rosemary essential oil, which can also preserve your hair color and promote healthier scalp and hair.
To make your eyelashes look thicker, dust them with a coat of loose powder before applying your mascara. Use a small brush to apply a thin layer of translucent powder to your eyelashes, taking care not to get the powder in your eyes. Follow up with a coat of your favorite mascara over the top of the powder.
If you have time for nothing else, focus on your eyebrows. Sometimes you might not have time to do your makeup. This is fine. However, if you still want to pull a look together, try focusing on your eyebrows. Shape them, brush them and be sure to fill them in. Eyebrows are often the focus of your face.
Use conditioner on your legs. The very same conditioners you use to treat your tresses can be used to replace your shaving creams. Conditioners are cheaper and have more staying power than your usual creams. You also can save shower time by not having to fumble with more than one product.
If you have dry skin, or older looking skin, you need to be exfoliating on a weekly basis. You should also do this if you are applying any kind of tanning lotion. You want to exfoliate first to get the most out of the tanning lotion you are using.
If you want to camouflage a pimple, rosacea, a rash or another reddish skin imperfection dab on a green concealer. While it looks strange in the package, the green neutralizes the red tones of irritated skin so you can apply your regular foundation and concealer without the redness showing through.
Wash your makeup brushes frequently. Fill up the sink in your bathroom and wash them in warm water with baby soap. Rinse them well, and let them dry on a towel. This keeps makeup from building up in the bristles, while also getting rid of acne-causing bacteria.
If you have ever gone too far when plucking your eyebrows to where you can’t see you had any, there is a solution. You will first want to select an eyebrow pencil that blends with your brow color. Remember to fill the entire brow with the pencil and not just the bald spots using the fill, fix, feather technique.
When applying makeup before a photo shoot, school pictures or any other photography session, favor matte finishes over shimmery ones and make sure that you apply your makeup under natural light. Shimmery shadows, blushes, lipsticks and powders will look too shiny in a camera flash. Applying your makeup under natural light gives you the best idea of how your makeup will actually look in the photos.
If your face has a lot of dry skin, you should visit a beautician for specialized moisturizing treatment to your face. This is a treatment formulated specifically for dry skin on the face and refreshes and smooths the skin’s appearance by getting rid of dead skin cells. Vitamins, minerals and herbal extracts help to restore your skin’s moisture level and increase your skin’s elasticity.
There is a very fine yet very important line between vanity and taking care of yourself. It is important that you stay on the correct side of this line. Beauty should be a small part of your daily routine and if it is becoming an obsession then you should try to rethink your priorities.
Visine is an important part of any beauty kit. Whether you were up late at night working or socializing, you’ll probably have bloodshot eyes in the morning. This can really make you look older. You can clear up this problem with a few drops of Visine. Visine is also an effective way to reduce the inflammation of acne. Simply dab a little on the affected area and let it dry. Your skin will be clearer in no time.
Now that you’ve gleaned some tips to help you stay radiant 24/7, it’s going to be hard not to look in every mirror you pass. Enjoy your new confidence when you apply the advice that you’ve learned here, and get used to the constant compliments that you’ll be receiving from admirers and envious others.
