Sometimes I just crave a delicious homemade treat. And what’s best about this dessert? It’s made with only THREE common pantry items, and you can make them even fancier by dipping in homemade chocolate. A win-win!

These cookies are delicious, quick, creamy, decadent, and oh-so-peanut-buttery.

I love keeping these cookies on hand for whenever I want a healthy dessert. They store great in both the fridge and the freezer!

I just love no-bake desserts. I’m not the best at baking – I honestly hate following recipes word for word so I do much better with general cooking where I can put my own flair into it and not ruin things completely, haha! So these cookies make it simple to throw them together in a flash.

I hope you love these as much as I do!
