2 INGREDIENT PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
• Soak dates in warm water for 10-15 minutes. If you are using a new package of dates and your dates are very soft, you do not need to soak them and you can use them as is. Drain dates from water (no need to completely pat dry them) and add them to food processor. Pulse until dates form a thick paste. You may need to scrape the sides of your food processor a few times with a spatula to ensure all the dates are evenly pulsed and mixed in.
• Add in peanut butter. Pulse until peanut butter is fully mixed in and becomes a thick cookie dough. Your dough may seem a little crumbly but if you pinch it together, it should stick.
• Using a 1.5 cookie scoop, scoop cookie dough and place onto prepared baking sheet. Continue to scoop until all dough is used up. You should have enough for 16 cookies. Grab one dough ball and press between your palms to compact it and keep the dough from getting crumbly. Roll between your hands to form a round ball. Place back onto cookie sheet and repeat with remaining dough, placing dough balls 2 inches apart.
• Press down on each dough ball so it form a thick round disk (about 1/2 inch thick). The cookies will not spread much during baking so you want to shape the cookies as close to you want their final appearance as possible. Use the back of a fork to make criss-cross patten on the surface of each disk.
• Bake cookies for about 10 minutes or until they puff up and the surface of the dough does not look wet. If you are unsure if your cookies are ready, you can test one by gently try to slide it on the baking sheet. It should without the bottom sticking. Be gentle because cookies are not fully set yet.
• Let cookies cool on cookie sheet and fully set before removing the cookies from the baking sheet.
