Notes

To store your cookies, place them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. If you’d like to keep them longer, they can be frozen for up to three months with parchment paper between the cookies. For added flavor, consider adding extra cocoa, mini chocolate chips, or using almond butter instead of peanut butter.
