Peanut Butter Cup Cookies (GF)

By srumbel

We’re all about a slightly crispy cookie with a pretty high chewiness factor. Check and check. Also, the fact that they taste like peanut butter cups doesn’t hurt either. I loaded the cookies with plenty of milk chocolate chips. You could totally use dark chocolate or semisweet chocolate chips as well. I don’t think you can go wrong either way.
If you love peanut butter and chocolate, you are in for a real treat. And I promise you’d never guess that they’re actually gluten-free. That’s how yummy these cookies are.
