Ingredients
  

For the cookie base
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 2/3 cup granulated erythritol or monk fruit sweetener Use based on preference
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pure peppermint extract Adjust according to taste
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup creamy natural peanut butter (no sugar added) For best texture
  • 1 1/2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/3 cup sugar-free chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil (for melting chocolate, optional)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the butter, almond milk, and granulated sweetener. Stir until the butter is fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
  3. Whisk in the cocoa powder and salt. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil and allow it to simmer for about 1 minute, stirring frequently to dissolve the sweetener completely.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in the peanut butter, peppermint extract, and vanilla extract until smooth and fully combined.
  5. Add the shredded coconut and almond flour. Mix until the mixture thickens and everything is evenly coated.
  6. Scoop heaping tablespoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and gently flatten into cookie shapes.
  7. Melt the sugar-free chocolate chips with the coconut oil in 20-second microwave intervals, stirring until smooth. Drizzle over the cookies.
  8. Refrigerate for 20–30 minutes until firm and set.
