These.
Are.
Addictive.
Very addictive.
So addictive you can’t eat just one.
So addictive you can’t eat just two.
So addictive they should come with a warning label.
Oh so very addictive.
Not for sharing.
Normally, I am very good about sharing my desserts with any friends who show up at my door. (And due to the fact that my friends know I make desserts for a living, inevitably someone will always show up at my door.) But as soon as I made these cookies, I knew I had something special on my hands. Therefore, I barred the door shut.
And contemplated building a moat around my house.
With crocodiles.
Hungry crocodiles.
I’ve had way too much fun with the commentary on this post.
Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Cookies
Inspired by these
(gluten-free and sugar-free too!)
- 1/4 cup peanut butter
- 1/4 cup plus 3 tbsp raisins
- salt to taste (I used a little over 1/4 tsp, but I like salty pb cookies!)
- 2 tbsp roasted, unsalted peanuts (If you can only find salted, reduce or omit added salt)
- 1/8 tsp pure vanilla extract
Throw everything into your food processor (I used an Osterizer) and combine until very smooth. Roll into balls, cookies, bars, or simply eat shovel the dough into your mouth, straight from the machine.
Dough can be stored on the counter, in the fridge, or in the freezer. Or in your belly.
These cookies taste like eating unbaked peanut butter cookie dough.
Mmmmmmm a giant ball of peanut butter cookie dough.
Question of the Day:
Hmmm I can’t think of one. I’m too busy dreaming about how addictive these peanut butter cookies are!
And thanks for all the love today on My Facebook Page.
{ 233 comments… read them below or add one }
Peanut butter is my latest addiction. I WILL be trying these! I love how I can eat vegan cookie dough without being scared of food poisoning and salmonella!
Cookie Dough is one of my favorite flavors!
Quick question….SO I tried to make you pizzart but I used regular whole wheat flour instead of pastry flour and I think it really messed it up!
I have a suggestion….You should do a Chocolate Covered Katie “Pantry Staples”. Things at the grocery store you need to whip up a lot of your recipes. Most of the time I dont have the things on your recipe list and I get all disappointed
SO I think it would be a great idea if you just made a list of the MAIN things your readers need to make your recipes, then we can all go shopping and make your yummys whenever we want!!
xxx
I like the suggestion of the grocery list…things that you use a lot in your recipes so that we could throw together more than one recipe within a coupld of days!!
Andrea
I love that idea. I’ll definitely work on making a list!
I made your Melties and flourless cookies on a whim the other day!! It does make it more exciting when I already have the stuff to throw together!!
raisins are the new dates?! These sound GOOD!
Great commentary! but if i were one of the friends you mentioned, I’ll bring my own spoon… and other utesils… you know… to shorten the preparation time for you?
A peanut butter cookie dough MILKSHAKE?!
*drool*
I love that these are no bake! No bake = no wait.
I might just eat it with a spoon
Mmmmm! I wasn’t expecting the recipe to look like this but they turned out so great looking!!! –I think I’d lock my door at all times if I made dessert for a living!
Peanut butter cookie dough MILKSHAKE? I need bananas ASAP me thinks.
Yummy!!! So easy to make and guaranteed to be delicious – how can anything with peanut butter NOT be!
Have a great day Katie!!
Add chocolate chips and swoon!
These sound great and such simple ingredients! Love!!
Oh, man, I am SO going to have to make these! All I need to buy are peanuts!
Or dip in melted chocolate!!
I love the milkshake idea, delicious!
I want to crumble one (or two, or three) of those on top of some banana soft serve! Nothing beats peanut butter and banana. It’s interesting that you used raisins instead of dates. I wonder if there’s a noticeable difference in taste and texture.
Cant wait to try these out!!! Soo cute!
I’m going to make these for breakfast – right now!
And all I can think about is how I have all these ingredients at home! Delicious.
Ahahha- your posts are always so cute! A moat…where do you come up with this stuff?
Oh my goodness-anything with peanut butter is delicious! Sometimes I’ll just throw some oats and a banana with a huge scoop of pb and eat the “dough” plain!
Wow. these do look for sure addictive! Great Work haha
I think those need some chocolate chips in there
YUM. These look amazing Katie! I bet they would be good in a peanut butter cookie dough ice cream too! I can’t wait to try them…and I love that they are sugar free!!!!
If I were home right now, this would be my lunch, no questions asked. Can’t wait to try them!
Yummmmmmm. Yo quiero. lol.
Man you post so much good stuff! I drool over your posts everyday!! However will I find the time to make all these delicious goodies!?!?! I see Christmas goodies in my family & friends future LOL.
Mmm Mmm!!! These sound better than the pb cookie larabars!!! I am going to have to try these out for comparison!! I love me some PB!!
Oh these look amazing! I’ll be trying these real soon! Great work!
Yummy! I can’t wait to try these! I LOVE peanut butter!!!
I’m happy they’re so simple to make too! : )
lovely, as usual. raisins are an interesting choice though, no?
People kept telling me that they used raisins for fudge babies, so I had to try it for myself!
yesss…these look so moist and wonderful…just how cookie dough should be!
holy deliciousness! making these later for sure
I’m thinking that these would be awesome with almond butter too!
I must go home now and find all sources of peanut butter to make this recipe like now. You have this effect on me. Thanks.
Ohhh these look delicious!!! They look like the consistency of a peanut butter cookie larabar too… yum! I think I might half the amount of raisins and add some mini chocolate chips
Your commentary just made me day! Well, in addition to this new delicious looking recipe that is
This is bananas.
Considering that I have 3 kinds of peanut butter in my room right now, these will likely be making an appearance very soon…I bet they’d be good with my cashew butter too!
Oh my lord. Peanut butter and cookie dough? Almost as good as chocolate. Since your door is locked and I won’t be able to show up and devour your stash, I guess I should make these on my own!
I JUST WANT TO EAT THAT BIG BALL OF DOUGH!!! I am getting some peanuts. And then making these. I want them SO BAD!! Please please please marry me Katie?!
yum!!! you8 know I love mah peanut butter Katie. and well…who DOESN”T like cookie dough??
so yea, going to buy raisins now and make these. I LOVE CCK!!!!!!!
These look amazing and perfect! I have a few versions of nobake peanut butter balls and bites and PB cookie dough is of course an amazing thing and your pics make me want to dive right in!
Most recently I just made flourless PB cookies and then flourless chocolate PB cookies. Both can be made vegan with a flax egg.
There is pretty much no wrong way to eat PB cookies or dough in my book. Love your NOBAKE recipe. Perfect.
sorry having problems with your site so if this duplicates, forgive me!
last comment went into moderation
Oh it’s not you. It’s… guess what… my server! Down again? Story of my life. Or my month, at least. You’d think that for how much I’m paying, it should be running PERFECTLY. Ugh ugh ugh.
Omg that SUCKS!!!!
Ok so the new company is already failing you??! in the first week??!!!!!
Yeah, apparently I need to upgrade. Um, why didn’t they tell me that before? I REALLY just want things to magically work so I can concentrate on the parts of blogging I love!
I get the server down as well…on the upside – it must mean your quite popular!
Wait, you’re still seeing the message? I was forced to switch to to EXTREMELY expensive vps, so this should NOT be happening anymore. Please tell me if you’re still getting the message now!
Also, yes, the chocolate chip cookies are on the chewy side. I recommend using oat flour. And make sure you use baking soda, not powder. And don’t omit the brown sugar.
Hi Katie! I am working on a nutrition study that involves participant consumption of protein powder every day. I have been trying to come up with some healthier baked goods/treats that they could put the powder in (all the recipes that a former grad student gave me called for high fructose corn syrup…). I made the cookie dough fudge babies and the protein worked out great in those (and I’m sure they will work great with this post as well). However the blondies came out hard as a rock (even after adding in applesauce and a little pumpkin to add more moisture). I was wondering if you have experimented with any type of protein powder in your recipes and if you had any suggestions for keeping baked goods from becoming too dry? Love your blog and your recipes!
Hey Megan,
Unfortunately, I don’t really use protein powder often because I haven’t found one I absolutely love. I do know that it works well in my Rice Crispy Treat Babies, though! Maybe one of these days I will have to splurge for Sun Warrior… I keep hearing everyone say how much they love that one.
Okay thanks I’ll definitely try those! I haven’t seen any posts with it so I figured it was a long shot! I have heard good things about Sun Warrior as well. My bf was using vanilla chai Vega but he said the amount of stevia that they use seems a bit off…and yes they are all so expensive!
Yeah, I agree about the weird aftertaste in the vega!
It may seem counter-intuitive, but just because applesauce is wet doesn’t mean that it will make your blondies softer. The solution you may be looking for is to add a bit of flour and that should soften them up.
These look so so good, I can just imagine how peanut buttery they taste. I might even try to make these using a different kind of nut butter…though I’m sure the peanut butter is magnificent.
I usually hate this, but: O … M … G 8-0 Wow…
I *just* made the peanut butter babies – and the chocolate peanut butter babies – yesterday! My dad leaves the last handful of salted peanuts (he buys them, I only ever eat/use the raw, unsalted, unroasted variety) in the bag then moves on to a new one so there were several near-empty packets hanging around in the cupboard driving me mad, so yesterday I turned them into little fudge babies of heavenliness … and now I need him to leave more so I can use them for these: peanut butter and raisin is one of my all time favourite flavour combinations! For example, I can promise you that Emma@Sweet Tooth Runner’s version of PB&Co’s Cinnamon-Raisin PB tastes amazing – although I haven’t tasted the original, I’m sure it can’t be much better!
Sorry for the essay, but I’m passionate about this
Thank you for this lovely recipe, and I think you had just the right amount of fun with the commentary: love it! 
Well Emma is just awesome in general… why haven’t I made that??? It sounds incredible!
Indeed! Here is the direct link in case it’s useful (I hope Emma doesn’t mind, or yourself – I’m never sure about link etiquette on blogs, I don’t mean to offend anyone): http://sweettoothrunner.com/2011/04/01/friday-faves-4/
I actually just used one cup of Meridian Smooth No Added Salt No Added Sugar Peanut Butter instead of processing raw peanuts, and stirred in the other ingredients; I think I added an extra teaspoon of cinnamon – I much prefer making my own flavoured nut butters as it’s so easy and completely customizable!
Oh I am SO glad you gave me the link. So so glad! Thank you
. Saves me the time of having to look. I definitely want to make this!
These look delicious! What kind of peanut butter did you use? Creamy? Crunchy? Although, I’m sure either would be amazing.
I used Whole Foods plain (it comes in a red jar), which is creamy… but I bet crunchy would be fun!
My two year old would eat the entire batch herself! These look incredible.
Yum!! I love dough – ey cookies! Especially PB ones. Flours and such add too much bulk and take away from the yummy flavor.
These look amazing! I am FOR SURE making them soon!
This might be my favorite thing you have ever posted.
Oh Man, I can already tell I will be doomed with these. I am your biggest peanut butter addict, I have to say. I go through 2 jars a week…I know!
I look forward to trying these out. I will let you know.
I can see why these would be so addictive! I love the little cross marks you put on the top, a la classic peanut butter cookies.
I can see why these would be addictive! I love the criss-cross lines you put on top, too. Nice touch
These look amazing! I wish one would just appear right now, ahhhh! Yummy!
Mmm, crocodiles…I mean, wait, what?!…peanut butter cookies!
peanut butter keeps me sane
Oh my GOSH, Katie I just made these and they really are as addictive as you said! Well really I should say “I just made THIS” because it never became “these”. The dough was too good to roll into balls! Yum!!!!
Not sure why it wouldn’t let me sign in, but that was me
.
Dude. I want to mix them into ice cream. Fer srs.
Made ‘em this morning, and they’re already gone. Oops
.
I <3 cookie dough!! With the raisins, it sounds like these could easily be pb & jelly cookie dough balls!
I know these are going to be making an appearance in my life soon…. VERY soon!!!
<3 <3
Looks amazing! So quick that I might have enough energy to make it after teaching tomorrow
I need to buy some peanuts… asap!!
OH MY YUMMMMMMMY! I used Dark chocolate Dreams from pb&co. Have you ever tried that stuff? You should try it in these. It tastes like pb fudge brownies! SO SO good!
Mmm yes I love that stuff!
I saw this recipe earlier today and it’s literally been on my mind ALL DAY!!!
Hehe the cookies have been on my mind all day too. As in, “When can I get back to the refrigerater to eat more?” And later: “Wha? Where did all the cookies go??”
Oooh I would love to mix this into oatmeal!! oh my gosh cookie dough oatmeal… that would be OATrageously delicious. hehehe.
Hi Katie! Although I don’t typically comment, I read your blog every day and I love experimenting with many of your recipes (I make your Blueberry Pie Pancakes at least once a week!). I wanted to let you know that I already made your Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Cookies this evening and you’re right–they’re AMAZING! I can’t believe how easy and ridiculously delicious they are. Thank you so much for posting another great recipe
Hope you have a good week!
Oh this just made me so happy! I’m so glad you tried them, because they really are one of my new favorite recipes… even without chocolate!
These look like heaven in a bowl. I can’t wait to try them!
These look awesome! I love peanut butter so so so MUCH!
YUM! I bet these are addictive they look perfect
These look very addictive!
These babies look soooo good! You know what would be an even better addition than raisins? (no offense to my wrinkled friends)… CHOCOLATE CHIPS! nomnomnom
These babies look soooo good! You know what would be an even better addition than raisins? (no offense to my wrinkled friends)… CHOCOLATE CHIPS! nomnomnom
p.s. sorry if this comment shows up twice
I’m making this with sunflower seeds and maple syrup!!! Sounds delicious!!!
wait, did you mention these were addictive?? ok, so yes, you did and you were right! I can´t wait to bring them to my non-vegan friends tmro. Thanks for another superb recipe!
Hahaha you are a nicer friend than me. You’re willing to share!
These are awesome! Made them tonight and ate almost all of them myself. OH NO!!!
I’m so excited you made them! And don’t worry… I ate all mine too. They have evil, coercive powers
.
Do you find that almond butter works pretty well as a substitute for PB? I’ve never tried cooking with it, but I NEED to try these and I’m allergic to peanuts!
I actually don’t like almond butter very much! Terrible, right? Texture-wise, it will work just fine… and if you do like the taste, I’m sure it’ll be good too!
I just made these and they are amazing! I really like that it uses raisins instead of dates. since they are cheaper!
I think I need to try making chocolate ones with raisins. Wondering why I didn’t do that first!!!
How did I miss this post? Katie, you’re a genius. These sound perfect. Thanks for posting this recipe!
Delicious!! Taste like a peanut butter and jelly larabar! Eating them currently with a cup of coffee, great Saturday afternoon! Thanks Katie!!
Thank YOU for trying them!!
Sorry if someone already asked this BUT… did you use natural peanut butter for this recipe? Can’t wait to try them!
Yup! I used Whole Foods brand. It comes in a red jar. I’m sure any would work, though. Maybe next time I’ll try chocolate pb!
Thank-you! Trying these tonight! yum!
Hi Katie!
I made these, and the taste and texture is good – like everyone says! I’m wondering if you had the problem of these being really greasy. I literally had a puddle of grease on my counter after I made these, and my hands were coated with oil. Weird huh?? Did anyone else have that problem? I did not add extra oil so i found this strange.
Hmmm… I didn’t. Maybe it’s a difference in the pb we used? Or, did you fridge the dough before rolling into balls/bars?
I did not refrigerate them, and I used TJ’s natural peanut butter….hmmm. Tis a mystery!
Try refrigerating the dough first. It makes them harder. Also, I used WF pb, which is kinda dry to begin with.
Could I make these without the raisins? I don’t care for them. Or would it change the consistency?
What about subbing an equal amount of pitted dates (such as SunMaid)?
I was just thinking about using dates instead of raisins! I have dates at home, raisins would require a trip to the store…hmm.
I was wondering with this cookie dough recipe, if you could bake them into cookies also?
Ooh wow, I don’t know! That sounds like a fun experiment, though! If you try it, let me know how it turns out!
I didn’t have raisins, so I used cranberries. My youngest said, “Hey, these taste like pb&j!” They look like it too! Now to hide them so I can quit eating them!
Love your idea to use cranberries! I wonder how they’d taste with dried cherries… or maybe even blueberries! You just opened up so many new ideas for me!
I just made these. HOLY COW. I have eaten half of them already. Luckily they are relatively healthy! I added some cocoa powder to make them chocolatey (I know you would approve).
I love finding recipes where I have all the ingredients in my cupboard already!
Thanks,
Jess
xx
It makes me SO happy that you tried them! Seriously, I just want EVERYone to make them because I am so obsessed
.
T stands for tablespoons? yes?
Yes!
Yet another fabulous cookie recipe! Made them with dried apricots as I didn’t have raisins…turned out delicious. Thanks for sharing. Posted a link to this recipe on my blog today; hope you don’t mind!
http://resistantnikki.blogspot.com/2011/09/banana-bread-cookies.html
I’m so honored! Can’t comment on your site b/c I don’t have a google or wp account… but your banana cookies look delish as well!
I just discovered your website through Facebook and knew I had to try these, as I had all the ingredients.
I use the Valencia w/ toasted flax peanut butter from Trader Joe’s, and dates instead of raisins (no raisins in the house right now, but I’ll be sure to get some). Absolutely delicious! Such a satisfying and wholesome treat to quiet down the sweet tooth!
I am so glad you found me!!
I made these tonight and I am already on my second batch! My kids and husband devoured them in seconds. I’m putting these in their lunch boxes tomorrow.
Aww yay!!! I am SO excited you all like them!
I made these and your peanut butter milkshake (with my homemade peanut butter!) and loved both of them! Posted the links on my blog today and have gotten a few of my friends addicted to the cookie dough
Katie…this is, hands down, my absolute FAVORITE recipe on your blog. And choosing a favorite was tough, let me tell you! But I just wanted to thank you so much for creating this easy, DELICIOUS recipe!
Oh wow, Charlotte, I am SO happy you like it so much!! It’s one of my favorites too… I keep meaning to post my chocolate version!
There’s a chocolate version? Oh my goodness, I can’t wait to try it! :3
I’m eating this dough as I type, it is heavenly! Thank you as always, Katie! x
Oh. My. Gosh. These are AMAZING!!! I made a batch yesterday, and my eyes literally rolled back in my head when I tasted it. Needless to say, the dough is gone. So sad… but the good news is I have more ingredients to make another batch. PB Cookie Dough heaven, here I come!
Thanks!
Hey Katie!
I tried making these yesterday in my food processor, and at first, the raisins wouldn’t break apart… Then when it went on for a bit, they started getting pulverised, but the peanut butter also released a TON of oil, so when I was handling the dough, an incredible amount of oil was present which made it unappealing to eat and hard to handle!
Any solutions?
Hmmm, sorry I don’t know! Maybe use a drier pb? Mine is never oily at all
. I use natural pb from Whole Foods, so maybe it’s drier?
Hmm good point!
Yeah the PB originally was pretty oily. It’s the smooth kind from my natural food store. I think I’ll try making it with PB from the machine! It’s sooo incredibly thick.
I made this last night and OMG you are not kidding when you say they are addictive. The raisins hold these together so well and the peanuts with the peanut butter……….AHHHHHH. so good!!!!!!!!!!
The student “I have no ingredients and no equipment” version:
3 parts pb : 1 part jam : 2 parts oats – mash together in a bowl.
Nommy
I also want to try it with banana instead of the jam…
How many cookies does this make?
Thanks!
Depends on how big you roll them. You can make balls or small cookies or big ones, or even larabars!
i just made these but i didn’t have peanuts on hand so i omitted them, and i used prunes instead of raisins. yum!!
I made these today! I rolled them into balls, stuck them in the freezer for about a half hour, and took them over to my boyfriend’s for a treat.
I love feeding him healthy treats when he doesn’t know it! This is a verrryyyy good and simple recipe, I will definately be keeping it!
Recipe is really tempting. It sounds great and looks very inviting!
Sounds so good!
Hey d’ya think I could use a Magic Bullet to make these? They look soooo good
I don’t know… it might have a hard time processing the raisins. But you can always try. And let me know if it works!
These look amazing! I want to try the recipe but am unsure if I can use a blender? That’s all I have in my kitchen. Do you think it would work!
Love your blog BTW!!!!
Hmmm… I don’t know. I *think* I remember some other commenters saying they used blenders. But I’ve only used the food processor. If you do use a blender, I’d love to know how they turn out!
I made these and that are AWESOME!
Posted them on my blog and posted back link credit to you!
http://successful2gether.blogspot.com/2011/11/peanut-butter-cookie-dough-balls.html
Today I made these twice! I’m addicted to peanut butter so all of my natural peanut butter was out so I had to use regular jiff…I used 1/4 cup and they came out extremely sticky still—too much peanut butter! (not necessarily a bad thing
) Then I tried them a second time improvising and making my own recipe and it was AMAZING! I used the 1/4 cup + 3 T of raisins, 2.5 T of almond butter, 1/4 T vanilla extract and about 2 T crushed roasted and salted soybeans. holy moly I’m in love with these cookies…i kept it in a giant dough ball in my fridge and have been picking pieces off all day, by the end of the day i plan on finishing it off by myself! 
thanks for the recipe, and again, i highly suggest the almond butter and soybeans, good protein sources too!
mmm! look good! I gotta get a food processor danngit!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your recipes, Kate!! After having lost 42 lbs. and fairly strict about what I eat, I’m wondering if anybody has figured WW points with any of these recipes? If so, would you mind posting. Otherwise, I’ll try to figure them out when I get a spare minute.
THANKS!!
Sorry, I don’t know anything about calculating ww points
.
Hey, NO WORRIES!!! I just need to take the time to figure it!!! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your recipes!!! Keep ‘em coming
Your recipes are mind blowing. I am so excited to find healthy desserts diabetics can enjoy!
Warning: do not make these with freshly stirred Smucker’s Natural PB… I made this mistake and the dough was way too oily! They turned out amazingly delicious once I left them in the fridge overnight, though! Great recipe Katie, I’m rarely ever disappointed by anything I find on your blog!
Hi Katie! I love your website, love, love, love! A friend recently recommended it to me and I’m so happy she did! I made these for the 1st time (w/slight exceptions) and they came out PERFECT! They were so awesome, I’ve tried to make them again twice but they are coming out way too soft, I can’t mold them at all
It’s so frustrating!! Here’s what I’ve done if you can help..please!
1st (perfect cookies!)
1/4c pb (just bought, room temp)
2T peanuts
1/8tsp vanilla
1/4c cooked oats
salt
I didn’t have raisins so I blended all this and it came out perfect – just like cookies!!
2nd time (wanted them a little sweeter…)
1/4c pb (from fridge)
2T peanuts
1/4c UNcooked oats
1pkt Stevia
Salt
1/8 vanilla (could’ve been 1/4tsp??)
3rd time same as 2nd but w/5 drops of liquid Stevia instead of pkt, no oats, and after I blended I put it in the freezer for an hour in the hopes it would be moldable – not
I’m going to try them this week and do them to the T but can you see something causing them to be too soft?? Thank You Thank You!!
I am addicted to your blog let alone these
want to give a suggestion though. If you can also add the calories per serving of your recipes it’ll be a BIG favor for people who are watching their calories. I want to try your so many recipes but I am too lazy to find out the cal. in them. Or may be I am missing it.
cookies
Love how you talk. I keep smiling when I am on your blog. I am not a vegan but love these vegan recipes.
Ok so I finally calculated the calories for these cookies. A 7gm ball of a cookie gives 61 calories. Which is good to me. These were the first thing I made this morning, even before breakfast. I couldn’t help myself thinking about these the whole night. I loved it. even my 2 year old who hate raisins, ate it. Thanks so much Katie for this and all other wonderful recipes I will be trying soon.
A new fan of you:)
Hi Soniyamas!
I actually do have calorie counts for most of my recipes, especially the more current ones. If you scroll under the actual recipe and instructions, you’ll find a link that says “Calorie and Nutritional Info” and that’s where I have the cal counts listed
.
I’m so glad you liked the cookies!
I just made these….yummo!!! I just hope I can save a couple for my 3 yr old daughter for after school which is less than an hour from now. I may just have to make more. Next time, I will double or triple the batch. My husband will devour these and love these have no added sugar since he is diabetic. Thanks for your wonderful website.
YUM!
My version came out a little runny at first and then after refrigerated, it’s a little crumbly.
I’m just eating it with a spoon instead of making cookies
So good!! Thank you!
Seriously.. I just made another double batch today. Amazing on yogurt in the morning! I’d LOOOOVE it if you posted a recipe for a different flavor.. maybe a classic chocolate chip or snickerdoodle? Maybe if you used almond butter instead of peanut butter it would serve as a more bland base that could be flavored any which way? Just a thought….

These are probably some of my favorite things. This site has saved my life!! Thank you Katie(:
“Dough can be stored on the counter, in the fridge, or in the freezer. Or in your belly.”
I lol’ed. Actually though, not just typing that. Thanks for another great recipe, can’t wait to try it. =)
The link for Peanut Butter Cookie Dough cookies works now. Don’t know what was wrong. Thanks!
It’s my site! I’m sorry. My site is going crazy, giving people 404s on pages that do exist!
These are amazing, really. My son and I whipped these up and put them in the freezer. As good as they are right out of the bowl, do yourself a favor and enjoy them from the freezer. They are worth the wait, believe me!
These recipes aren’t very diabetes friendly. I made the somoas last night and it dates have so much sugar that it shot my blood sugar up.
I was wondering if you have the number of servings for any of your recipes. Maybe it’s in the nutrition information that sometimes goes with the posts? It is helpful to me to know how many people each recipe will serve, so I know how big of a batch to make when I am taking the dessert to a pot luck, etc.
I try to list the # of servings as often as possible… but with recipes like this, it’s hard because you can roll them into balls or make bars or even cookie-cuttered shapes. So it really depends
.
I just made these and while they are very delicious, I am having that oily problem, too. I just patted the excess off and put in the fridge to eat in the morning. I will definitely have to get some drier pb for these because they are so good.
I just made these…omg they are SOOO good. I used lightly salted peanuts and didn’t add any salt and they were delicious. I’m thinking of adding some protein powder to my next batch. Thank you SO much (btw my friend is making your normal peanut butter cookies, we’ll see how those go)
Hello, love your recipes! I just had one question, I know you don’t really like to do calorie information, but I was wondering what the “serving sizes” are on some of your recipes. The single lady cupcakes/etc. are obviously for one serving, but how many servings would be in something like the brownie batter dip or this cookie dough recipe? Cuz I don’t want to end up eating a whole bowl of something that was meant for more like six people or something, lol.
I try to list the # of servings as often as possible… but with recipes like this, it’s hard because you can roll them into balls or make bars or even cookie-cuttered shapes. So it really depends
.
The dip is meant to have multiple servings… but once again, I can’t say how many because it depends. But yeah, it’s definitely not meant for just one serving!
Made these last night for the first time. Didn’t have raisins, so I subbed prunes. They didn’t look nearly as pretty as yours, but they tasted delicious! Noms…can’t wait to make them again!
Just made it! Put walnuts instead of peanuts and added some cocoa powder, there super delicious!!
AMAZING!!! Super simple to make!
Hi Katie!
I was just wondering whether someone who depises raisins with a passion would like these cookies??
I bet you would- they don’t taste anything like rasins to me
Thanks for the answer
These are so good it motivates me to keep my food processor clean! I told my boys they were gross and I had to eat them
LOL!
Hey katie!
For weight watchers reference, 1/4 of this recipe is 5 points plus! thought i’d share since I looked it up.
PS this is AMAZINGGGGGG!!!
These are amazing! Thank you so much for making me realize gluten-free doesn’t have to be dessert free. I love your website. Do you have nutrition info for these? And how many is your recipe supposed to make (generally)?
These didn’t taste all that much like peanut butter cookie dough to me. They still kind of had a fruity taste from the raisins. I just added a little bit of grape jelly and they were delicious/healthy peanut butter and jelly cookies!!!
WOW – I just found your site and I made the peanut butter cookie dough ones. FANTASTIC! I am always looking for healthier versions of sweets and I substitute quite a bit in my own baking. However you have such great ideas and take it to a whole other level. Thanks!!
You should definitely try these with some of the Peanut Butter & Co. flavors! Dark Chocolate Dreams and White Chocolate Wonderful would be AH-MAZING in this recipe!!! (and all of their flavors are vegan too!) I’m definitely going to try these out tonight!
I didn’t have peanut butter so I added some extra peanuts, but even without, this was unbelievably delicious. Thank god I only made a fourth of the recipe. My waistline would not be happy with a binge!
Do you have any idea what the calorie content of these is?
Thanks,
Lisa
Oh, Katie! I just made these… And I am so glad I did! They are FABULOUS! I subbed dates because I already had them and they worked just fine. Thanks for sharing!! I also made your girl scout cookie larabars today- another winner! Thank you!
Katie, this recipe looks fabulous! I just reviewed this post over on my blog (a href=”http://goodeatspuppy.blogspot.com/2012/02/no-bake-cookies-full-of-chocolatey.html” title=”Best of Good Eats on Pinterest”. I can’t wait to make these!
Aww thanks for such a sweet post! I couldn’t comment because I don’t have a google account, but I hope you like the cookies!
Just wondering if anyone successfully made these with a magic bullet…my own results were umm…less than stellar lol, but as always, it was an easy tasty snack. I just wound up adding in some honey nut o’s, almond milk, and having a random cup of pb&j cereal!
These are crazy addictive! I double the batch made them twice and I’m out. I roll them into small balls and place in the freezer. There so good! Making more tomorrow!
I made these and they were delicious! I didn’t have raisins so I used craisins!!!! My boys loved it. They were eating it by the spoonful! I also love chocolate so I did another variation of peanuts, peanut butter, vanilla, nutella and Graham sticks!!! Iy is rich and chewy:)
Keep Up the great work Katie!!!
Just made these are they are YUMMY. Thank you!!
i just made the peanut butter cookie dough cookies less than 12 hours ago and the whole batch is in my stomach. they are DELICIOUS. i didn’t even have time to roll them into cookies, i ate the mixture with a spoon
i didn’t have peanuts on hand so i substituted cashews (more carbs unfortunately) but they turned out wonderfully. i’m trying to wait at least a day before making these again….we’ll see how that goes
I love your idea to sub cashews… Now I really want to try that too

Hi Katie! I’m a vegetarian and just recently started to check out your blog (by the way-it’s amazing and so helpful because I’m pretty sure I have one of the biggest sweet tooths in the world!) But anyway…I’m not a huge fan of raisins and I was wondering if there are any raisin substitutes or if it tastes like raisins at all/is is only to thicken the batter?
oh and i prefer eating my cookie dough with a spoon too
Oh and sorry but I have one more thing to ask…
are there any recipes you have that are super chocolatey and delicious but are low in calories so i can eat like the whole entire bowl/batch without gaining like 200 pounds?
Hi Jules,
.
Yes, many of my recipes are (or can be) very low in calores. Too many, in fact, to recommend one or two. Just look through the recipe page
Dates?
thanks!
I rarely comment on any websites- but your humor and writing style, plus great photos, and incredible recipes is over the top terrific. I just had to tell you that!!! Your humor in this one- still hasme giggling! Thank you so much for all the kitchen inspiration- and wonderful sugar free, gluten free vegan recipes!
Ok I HAD to try these BUT all I had was the pb on hand. I always have all of these things of course except today!!:( Soooo I used dried cranberries in place of the raisins and oats in place of the nuts. They were pretty tart because of the berries so I added an extra tbs of pb and a tbs of brown sugar, I know now they are no longer sugar free but I seriously wanted to eat them and your recipe gets plenty of sweet from the raisins. I can’t believe how good they were!! I’m going to make a double batch with the correct ingredients soon!!!
Thank you for your blog!!!!

Loved these and I substituted the peanuts for roasted almonds and I added a little more PB and added some baking cocoa for that chocolate taste too…awesome and will make again! Thanks
Deb
Thank You Katie for another wonderful recipe. I’ve followed your blog for a few months now and made quite a few of your recipes. I feel like I’m getting to know you by trying your stuff! Love it all– and these were a perfect treat tonight. Always look forward to your next post
made these today. Followed the recipe to a T and there is no way they can be formed into anything. The taste is GREAT but it’s still the consistency of Peanut Butter and not at all like a cookie dough – very sticky. Am I missing something??
What brand pb did you use? And what food processor? Can you tell me more about what you did?
Just made these and they are so good! I didn’t have peanuts, so I used pecans. I also didn’t have any raisins in my baking stuff, so I stole 4 mini packs of raisins from my 2 yr olds stash….They turned our really good. Now, to hide them before my devouring teenage sons get home. Did you know teenagers eat ANYTHING?????? Crazy!
Just made these, love them! I added just a small handful of chocolate chips to the recipe because i add chocolate chips to just about everything. They are amazing. I think i am going to roll them in balls and dip them in chocolate next time. My nephew said they taste like the inside of a tasty cake, hes very picky too. Wins all around over here! Thank you!!!
So easy to make! I never made Larabars because I thought you needed dates, but raisins make a great substitute. These PB ones sound great. I am SOOO making these tomorrow and packing them in baggies for snacking on the go!
Always love your blog!!!
have you ever tried these using the banana butter to cut down on calories?
Sorry, I haven’t. It sounds like a fun experiment, though! Let me know if you try it!
These are sooo good! I did half raisins and half dates – and they turned out great! You are a genius, Katie.
Hi Katie!
I want to make these so bad, but I don’t own a food processor. Would a blender work? Thanks!
Sorry, I haven’t tried it so I don’t know
It doesn’t work :/ I guess a food processor should be on my next gift list!
I was a doubter all the way until I put it in my mouth at the end. Wow! Soooo wonderfully indulgent. I used dates since it’s all I had on hand. You were right–I just scooped (nearly) all of it into a bowl and ate it right away.
OK, don’t be mad
… I used golden raisins and dried BLUEBERRIES instead and it tastes AMAZING!!! I love how your recipes are an easy benchmark for my crazy brain that never leaves “good enough” alone.
I totally wanted to make this recipe since I ALWAYS have PB, raisins and vanilla extract on hand. EXCEPT TODAY I was all out of extract so I subbed maple syrup. AND I was short on raisins
Haha mad?! I LOVE it when people make up their own recipes based on something I’ve posted… then I always want to try their version
.
I keep my cupboard stocked with these ingredients now! SO delicious! Also, the difference in using regular peanut butter and natural makes a world of difference!
OMg!!!!!!! Thank God I found you! I made these w/ Sunbutter and added chia and cacao nibs. IM IN HEAVEN!
I just made these today (with raisins that were past their prime). The cookies were STILL delicious. I rolled the cookies in shredded, unsweetened coconut. Fantastic treat. Thank you for the recipe! You may have broken my expensive addiction to Larabars
Found your recipe on Pinterest and just had to try these. Absolutely loved it but had no peanuts so replaced them with chopped hazelnuts and they turned out super delicious. I used a small ice cream scooper to shape them evenly and got 12 little cookies. Thanks for sharing this healthy treat. x
Tried these in the magic bullet with no success
took awhile. I wasn’t sure if I should’ve kept at it but I used the flat blade which is meant for dried fruit and nuts. Any suggestions on how it would’ve worked?
I’d recommend a high-quality food processor for this recipe, for best results. Cuisinart is a great brand and holds up for years!
