How to prepare

  1. Line a baking tray with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, mix peanut butter, cocoa powder, coconut flakes, melted butter, erythritol, and vanilla extract (if using) until thick and evenly combined.
  3. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed.
  4. Scoop small portions (about 1 tablespoon) onto the tray and shape lightly.
  5. Freeze for about 40 minutes, or until set.
  6. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for a softer bite, or in the freezer for a firmer texture.
  7. Enjoy anytime you want a quick low carb treat.

Tips for the best texture

If your mixture feels too soft, add a little more coconut flakes. If it feels too dry, add a small spoon of peanut butter and mix again. For clean shapes, slightly dampen your hands before forming the cookies.
