5 Ingredient Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
Flourless 5- Ingredient Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies – only a few ingredients and gluten free!
We were invited last minute to a friend’s house for dinner and I didn’t want to show up empty handed so I literally threw these peanut butter cookies together in under 5 minutes.
These are practically like drinking a protein shake since they contain peanut butter but don’t have any flour or butter in them. Gluten-free!
I’m big on texture…these were perfectly chewy and melted in my mouth. I love quick treats like this that you can throw together especially during the summer when we always seem to have spontaneous BBQs and my kitchen isn’t always stocked. Enjoy your “protein shakes”.
5 Ingredient Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ cup milk chocolate chips
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
-
Mix all ingredients except chocolate chips. When blended, mix in the chocolate chips. Using your fingers, form 1 1/2 inch balls (dough will be very wet and sticky) and place onto an un-greased parchment lined cookie sheet. You don't want to make them too big because they do spread. Bake for 7-9 minutes. Let the cookies sit on the cookies sheet for about 30 seconds to 1 minute before letting cool on a wire rack. Don't let them cool on the sheet or they will overbake. The key to these is to not cook them too long! Makes around a dozen small cookies.

I should have waited until after work to check this. Now I’ll be dreaming of cookies all day…. Not that that’s uncommon or anything seeing as I work in a bakery….
Only 9 more hours until I get my protein shake!
I am up for anything involving peanut butter!! Can’t wait to try these.
I bet these were good! I could go for one right now with my coffee!
Oh, I am making these for sure!
I’m so excited that the ingredient list is so short! Definitely something I can make when I get home today without having to drop by the market!
Yum!!!!!! This is deadly for my weight regulation. 🙂
Thanks for the giveaway!

This is dangerous seeing as all of those items are normally in my house. I see many of these cookies in my future!
These look dangerously delicious and easy to make! Love your blog!

Wow, peanut butter is my absolute favorite and if you mix it in a cookie you can’t go wrong! Thanks for the recipe. I think I’m going to put it on my list to try this week.
Those cookies sounds delicious! peanut butter and chocolate together…yum!
I love these cookies. I usually make them loaded with M&M’s. They are so addictive! The only bad thing, or maybe good thing, is that they make such a small batch!
i could use a cookie. and a giftcard. 🙂
Those look great and even better they are super easy.
Yum! These look really good, can’t wait to try them. Thanks for the fun giveaway. 🙂
The combo of chocolate and peanut butter is my husband’s favorite.
These look great.

Yumm’ can’t go wrong with PB and chocolate chips and brown sugar. Will need to try these soon.
I love chocolate and PB, these look great!
looks tasty
They look awsome! Do you think they’ll work with more chocolate in them? I have a habit of adding more chocolate than is called for in every cookie recipe. I’ll try and then let you know.
Thanks for all of your awesome recipes! Our favs are your taquitos and the bar sugar cookies. You have such good, yummy ideas!
I love how simple and east these are, can’t wait to try them!
wow.. these look amazingggggggg.
i’m thinking this is low carb… think about it, no flour!!! at least you are saving some calories and adding the protein.
yummmy!
Love your blogspot! Can’t wait to try these!
It’s probably a good thing I don’t have any chocolate chips in my pantry right now…’cause if I made these, I would most likely eat them all by myself!
~deanna
I love your blog Christy. Found it last month while on vacation. This cookie recipe is great to have on hand. Excited to try them…
This looks another one of your fabulous recipes, off to make them right now!
Looks like the perfect cookie to me! Love the blog!
I love peanut butter chocolate chip cookies, thanks for such a simple recipe!
I’d love to win your giveaway and buy myself a food processor. I’m currently doing it’s job by hand and I’m just not cutting it. I used my mother-in-laws food processor last week to turn cookies in to crumbs for a cheesecake bottom and what had taken me two hours to do by hand the week before was done in about 5 minutes!
Made these tonight. Couldn’t be easier. They are very sweet but yummy. Perfect with a cold glass of milk.
I can’t wait to try this recipe. It sounds YUMMY! Thanks for sharing.

You really can’t go wrong with peanut butter + chocolate!! Looks delish!
Those cookies look wonderful!
What a great giveaway!!
It’s peanut butter and jelly time!!
Except toss the jelly and hold chocolate!
Not many people can resist and peanut butter and chocolate cookie.
First of all, I love a quick cookie with a few ingrediants – seems like such simple wholesomeness (though not in a ‘healthy’ way;) These look marvelous!
And I offically love the name of your blog. When I first read it (after coming over from Food Gawker) I thought “Dang, I wish I had thought of that!” That would also describe me perfectly!
Those cookies look amazing! It is hard to believe that they only have 5 ingreds.
YUMMO!! Looks sooo good! Christy…you rock girl!
all you have to say is “peanut” and I’m game!
also, would love (!!!) to win the giveaway prize… 🙂
OMG!! I am soo jealous of these cookies right now. The photo-shoot must have been amazing! These cookies look UBER delicious!
Oooh! I’m so excited! I love peanut butter cookies and my sister-in-law is allergic to wheat, soy, and dairy. With the right kind of chocolate chips, even she can eat these. And since my hero is whoever originally put peanut butter and chocolate together, I’m sure to be a big fan! Might even have to make them tomorrow. 🙂

am i too late to enter? thanks for a new peanut butter cookie recipe!
yummo- these look great- a must try. ps tried those smore bars-they were fantastic and EASY! ty
@Mo Betta,
I don’t think that Almond Butter would work. I think peanut butter gives it that texture that’s the bomb. I think Almond Butter would melt too much.
I just stumbled across this recipe and decided to make them tonight. Super easy… I made some modifications though… I doubled the recipe, used chunky peanut butter and semi-sweet choc. chips (3/4c for the doubled recipe)since milk choc is so sweet. They turned out delicious! Definitely will add this recipe to my recipe box and put it in my cookie rotation!
I made these today and they are DELICIOUS! Thanks for the great recipe!
chocolate and peanut butter, just the perfect combination for a perfect cookie, love your recipe.

I am thinking…..and I didn’t read all the previous posts….that if you wanted to cut down on calories you could use trader joes better than peanut butter which has less fat and calories!
Holy yumminess…
Hi there,
I would like to know one thing, are these gluten-free cookies?!
I found your blog in a search at pinterest on some gluten-free recipes.
Regards,
Claudia A.
No flour means gluten free right? So yes.
I made these today and they were delicious! I got immediate approval from my two daughters! Thank you
I don’t eat dairy, and have found it difficult to make cookies that aren’t too cakey…oil based butter replacements just don’t do the trick. So, when I saw this recipe on Pinterest, I was intrigued. THEY ARE SO GOOD. I honestly think they’re better than any buttery, floury cookie I’ve had. Even my dairy-eating family loved them. I WILL be making these again. Thanks!
Shauna,
So good to hear!!
just made these, didn’t have a lot of chocolate morsels left so i used a handful of m&ms too. they made about 20, i just oiled my hands before rolling/laying on cookie sheet. maybe i didn’t cook enough, because they are real crumbly but they are so rich and delish – thanks for this quick sweet fix!!
Nice bake man
There are going on my next baking list! I love melt in your mouth peanut butter cookies!

How do I join your blog?
I am sorry about that I did not think that my question went through. I would like to know how I join your blog.
Do you mean get emails in your inbox? Or you can follow on bloglovin.
Oh man, these are great! They’re rich, without being really dense like some gluten-free peanut butter recipes I’ve tried, so one **seems** satisfying… until you’ve finish it and suddenly need another.
Ha. Im glad you agree!
They didn’t work the first time but the second time they worked and tasted so freakin good
Awesome!
