NO BAKE COOKIE DOUGH
SQUARES
These are delicious, rich squares that are great alongside a cup
of tea or coffee. They satiate the
appetite so very well, and, in addition, the need for something yummy and sweet. The ever-popular chocolate and peanut butter
combination is used. A lot of chocolate is used in these squares. You’re welcome to cut down on it a bit, if
desired. These would qualify as a fat bomb treat, I think. If preferred, use
the Grain-Free Bake Mix to make it a Keto Fat Bomb treat.
1
cup peanut butter* (250 mL)
sugar
3
tbsp sugar-free honey, OR (45 mL)
1/2 tsp vanilla
extract (2 mL)
11/4
cups Gluten-Free Bake Mix 2, OR (300 mL)
Low-Carb, Gluten-Free Grain-Free Bake Mix, OR Keto Bake Mix
Low-Carb, Gluten-Free Grain-Free Bake Mix, OR Keto Bake Mix
2/3 cup sugar-free chocolate chips, OR this one (150 mL)
Chocolate
Topping:
1
cup sugar-free chocolate chips, OR this one (250 mL)
1
tbsp light-tasting olive oil, OR (15 mL)
2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted (30 mL)
In small bowl, soften peanut butter in microwave
oven. In food processor, combine peanut
butter, liquid sweetener, sugar-free honey, OR sugar-free pancake syrup and
vanilla extract; process. Add
Gluten-Free Bake Mix 2 and process on low speed until well combined. Add chocolate chips and combine well with a
spoon. Spread in an 8-inch (20 cm) square glass dish that has been lined with
parchment paper (first grease the glass dish to help the paper stick and if necessary
cut the corners with a scissors to help the paper fit more comfortably). Smooth the top with the back of a spoon. Pour the melted chocolate over the top. Keep in the freezer or refrigerator.
Chocolate Topping: In double
boiler, place chocolate and olive oil, OR butter and heat until melted. Stir and pour over the cookie dough base.
Helpful Hints: I like to use Skippy®
Creamy Natural peanut butter in my recipes.
It has the same number of carbs as Smucker’s®
Natural peanut butter which has a salty taste and needs stirring. Granted there is a small amount of sugar in
the former, but I love the fact that I never have to stir it and there are no
hydrogenated fats in it either. You can
always melt the chocolate topping in a bowl in the microwave oven, but do it in
short intervals to prevent the chocolate from seizing.
