Need a chocolate fix? Try these Keto approved No-bake Cookies

You might remember from a few posts ago that I was really craving chocolate and peanut butter.  I tried making some "fat bombs" as they call it and they turned our horribly. So I have been somewhat suspicious of other chocolate treats on Pinterest that are Keto-approved.  Until now.....
 
This recipe comes to us from How to This and That.  Here's what you need:
 
1. Unsweetened natural coconut
2. Butter
3. Peanut butter (check the sugar content -- and if you aren't allowing yourself to do peanut butter on this diet - any other nut butter will do)
4. Liquid vanilla stevia
5. 100% dark cacao powder (optional)
 
Directions:
 
Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in microwave (took about a minute).
Add 3/4 cup of peanut butter and mix well.  Also add 1 tablespoon of the cacao powder if you want them to be chocolate (I did this).
Add 1 cup of the coconut and 4 drops of the stevia.
Mix well
 
 
 
Scoop out onto a cookie sheet and put in your freezer for 5-10 minutes
 
Store them in a freezer bag in your fridge - and pop one whenever the cravings hit you.
