CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER KETO NO BAKE COOKIES
Sweet, crunchy and portable, these keto no bake cookies are the perfect low carb treat. A quick and easy low carb cookie recipe that is sure to be spouse and kid approved. It doesn’t get much easier that mix, chill, eat. As a child I remember a neighbor always making haystack cookies and it was always such a treat.
Sometimes she made them with oatmeal and other times she made them with crunchy chow mein noodles. The chocolate butterscotch chow mein version was always my favorite, and since I only had them on special occasions, it always felt like an extra special treat. I can almost taste them right now.
