Prep Time: 5 mins
Cook Time: 12 mins
Total Time: 20 mins

Yield: 12 cookies 1x

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet
Mix together the peanut butter, flax egg, coconut sugar and vanilla extract until combined
Mix in oat flour and baking powder until fully combined and dough is formed
Spoon about 1-2 tablespoons of batter into your hand and roll into a ball then slightly flatten (just a little!) and add to baking sheet
Repeat for remaining dough (should make 12 cookies)
Bake in oven for 10-13 minutes (Mine needed 12 minutes)
Remove from oven and let the cookies cool for about 10 minutes then gently press down a tablespoon to form an “intention” for the peanut butter cups
Once cookies are cooled, add peanut butter cups on top and stick on the spider eyes (I used PB to get them to stick on) and drizzle melted chocolate in squirt bottle for legs

Notes
