Wow, learned something about peanut flour, thank you ! I made this today, but I cut them in smaller servings of 64 pcs that I individually froze in a ziploc bag. It's just what I need for days when I just want a bite size snack.
Another pro tip for measuring peanut butter: Measure some water in a liquid measuring vessel and add the peanut butter until the water level rises by the amount of peanut butter you wanted. This will give you a more accurate measurement, the butter is suspended in liquid so you don't have to worry about stickage, and the butter is mostly oil so you don't have to worry about it mixing/breaking apart in the water.

Just watched this today and went out to get the things from the store to make this. First off, 65 year old man who doesn't cook. Oh man was this delicious. Can't wait to have my wife and daughter come home to taste this. Thank god for you and RUclips! I am seriously looking forward to trying other recipes of yours on my family. Maybe there's hope for a guy like me after all ! God Bless everyone
Saved this video as soon as you said your kids think they taste like reeses peanutbutter cups, they’re one of my favorite candies wich I miss dearly!! Thank you for this recipe🎉
thank you so much for this. I'm not on keto.. but I am on sugar free.. minimal breads, pastas and no cookies n cakes and delectable delights.. These are perfect for me because nearly every other keto dessert is heavy whipping cream.. tryin to be healthy here. lol so thank you.
I would just sprinkle my chocolate of choice on the peanut butter ,pop it in the oven to warm just enough to spread it out . Cool and enjoy. One less dish to dirty
Hello. These look delicious & I am. Resse’s cup liver- but I’m plant based vegan. Will it work with replaced butter & can these be stored in freezer? Thnx
Since most Keto recipes online are made by Americans I really wished for you lot having the same units of measuring as us Europeans:D 3/4 of a cup, haven't cups different sizes?
Can we use Lakanto's Peanut Butter Powder in place of the Peanut Flour? That's what I have right now. I would have to purchase the Peanut Flour ( which I can do, I'm just trying to see if it will work since it's what I have now)
Looks good but it's funny when I ask for recipes with low carbs or no sugar it always gives me recipes with honey and stuff and that will still spike my sugger levels you can't call it no sugar if you're gonna add in honey cause honey is Mainly sugar
Dear lady I've been stressing over holiday candy so hard! Your channel just rescued me! My husband and I went keto lifestyle a few months ago. Have lost 140lbs between us. I've always been a holiday candy maker, and cookies too. "Not this season" I kept saying sadly. Thanks to you and with 8 days till holidays, I'm about to shred my kitchen! 🤶🎄 Thank you and happy holidays
Food porn is never good on a fast. I'm watching because I have a birthday lunch to go to soon (with big juicy steaks) and I had zero appetite as of an hour ago, I'm trying to stimulate an appetite.
Oh my goodness, Carolyn, I made a batch without trying it first. My son, who has always loved PB cups, was coming out to visit. We made lunch for him and then after awhile, we brought out your PB bars. Momma was a HIT!!!! We all loved these bars. When my man asked if he'd like to take some home, my son said WELLLLLL YEAHHHHHH!!!! I was thrilled. You're so awesome.
These look amazing!! I will make for my family! I will stay away from Justin's peanut butter though since it has palm oil. For that premium price, I cannot believe Justin's uses one of the cheapest, most inflammatory oils available. I love the Costco brand all natural peanut butter, such a great price and all clean ingredients.
I agree, bad oils for your body, but ALOT/MAJORITY of ppl are not educated on oils and or don't care enough for them to change it though. I do believe the more we learn the more we wake up, education is power, keep spreading the truth. Palm, canola, vegetable, cottonseed, safflower, sunflower, all cheap, highy processed, highly inflammatory foods that are pretty much in everything in the American diet, if you eat this daily it will make you feel horrible, sluggish, worn down, aches and pains, kills cells in the body. This stuff is bad news.
@@KSSBG Because when things go viral, the supply decreases dramatically, while demand goes up. In order to scale with demand, companies have to ramp up production - which leads to cutting costs (by using cheap inflammatory oils for instance) and a lower quality product.
You're a really good communicator...I hope you have a job where you use your skills to teach others. I've watched several of your videos and I like your auditory presentations. I like you very much!
Sorry but please put the ingredients up on screen as your saying them like other channels do, make it easier for other countries as could not hear what the first flour type ingredient was? also some ingredients like peanut flour I cannot get in UK please offer suitable alternatives and give weight in metric as some countries like UK etc do not use cup measurements like America do
• 3/4 cup (170.3g) butter melted • 3/4 cup (170.1g) peanut butter melted • 1/2 cup (120g) powdered Swerve Sweetener (more if you like it sweeter) • 1 tsp vanilla extract • 2 cups (240g) peanut flour the roasted, defatted variety • 1/4 tsp salt Chocolate Glaze: • 3 ounces (85g) sugar-free dark chocolate chopped • 2 tbsp butter (28.4g) I just plugged the cup measurements into Cronometer (a free calorie tracker) and it also gives the gram measurements. It also gives the breakdown of fats, carbs, protein.
The gram weights listed here for peanut flour and powdered sweetener do not seem right. Should it perhaps be the half...? And the peanut butter seems a little low at 170 grams, I think one cup should be around 180-200 grams...?
I have found it better to reduce the amount of peanut flour and increase the amount of peanut butter. This is because I found that by following her recipe, the end result was cakey in your mouth. Right now I'm down to 220g of peanut flour and increased the peanut butter by 20 grams.
Great recipe, I can't wait to try it. I already make something like this but I use coconut oil instead of butter and protein powder instead of the flour (can use caramel or cinnamon or vanilla protein powder for extra flavor). I've never tried it with the chocolate coating though, and am looking forward to seeing how it works!
@@kellysachtschale3791 No problem! Here's the basic recipe. It's easy to scale up or down. Add various flavors, mix-ins, or other nut butters. Peanut butter coconut cookies Ingredients ⅔ cup peanut butter or other nut butter 2 tablespoons coconut oil 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut flake Protein powder as needed Directions Place the peanut butter and coconut oil in a medium microwaveable bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds. Stir to combine. Add the vanilla and stir. Add the unsweetened shredded coconut flakes and mix until evenly coated. Add protein powder to desired consistency (if too runny, add more powder; if too dry, add more oil & peanut butter) Dollop the mixture on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Each cookie should be around 1½ inches (4 cm) wide. Freeze until solid, about 15-20 minutes.
C'mon Folks, It's not really that different. The butter taste is a bit overwhelmed by the chocolate so using cocoa butter would just add more cocoa aroma rather than buttery aroma. and the peanut flour is more for solidness, the peanut butter carries most of the flavor. What's wrong with people using what they've got and sharing their experience? I made something like this before because my almond butter separated. so I mashed it together with some peanut flour and sweetener and melted chocolate over it. similar idea using what I had on hand. God Forbid someone is shamed into not trying just because they don't have exactly the same things when it's not even that important to the recipe. It's the idea that counts here.
The easiest way to measure peanut butter (or anything when it comes to food) is to have a scale. I can't live without mine. It's easy and quick to use and you get EXACT measurements every single time, impossible to go wrong. It's so strange to me that most people use cup measurements.
You are absolutely right. I don't know why Americans tend to use such old-fashioned methods, when electronic scales are available. I have seen another cooking guru, who uses both, and even gives metric weights. And, I have never seen anyone on RUclips who measures spoonfuls properly, as I was trained to do in my childhood. You put the spoon in the powder, eg baking powder, or cocoa or salt, bring it out, and LEVEL it, usually with a knife. A "rounded" or "heaped" spoonful is not accurate.
Not necessarily. If you are following a volumetric recipe - like this one - and don't know the density of the ingredient you can't accurately calculate the equivalent weight (mass). Mass = volume / density. In other words, how many ounces does 3/4 of a cup of peanut butter weigh? Hint: it's not 6. It's more, depending on whether it is smooth or chunky, salted or unsalted. Peanut butter is more dense than water, which weighs 6oz per 3/4 cup. If you don't believe me, try drinking a cup of peanut butter. You can't, it's too dense. Or weigh out an 8oz measuring cup of it and you'll find it weighs somewhere north of 9 oz. So, unless the recipe proportions are given in mass then weighing is in fact less EXACT. Also less easy and quick because you must look up the density.
I have tried many recipes off RUclips but this one is absolutely the best, and I mean the best! Thank you for the share. (Now I have to see if you have any other 'snacks' that we can eat on the keto. )
Real struggle, I always end up halfing all the recipes, because I am the only keto eater at my house. Sometimes I drop some treats to my sister to keep from eating all them. We trade treats some times.
One meal a day. Eat them all in one sitting as your daily meal. Consider it a 'cheat' meal that you don't have to fast for a day afterwards to get back into keto.
Really awesome recipe. Just made them, and I found everything, the peanut flour, Lily's chocolate, powdered sugar, and sugar free peanut butter at Publix. Thank you for this idea! Happy Mother's Day!
Oh My! I' love your site. I didn't realize you had a RUclips! I'm so glad I came across this. Totally Subscribed! I made a similar scratch recipe with some almond butter that had separated, so wasn't spreadable anymore, and defatted peanut flour. I formed them into flattened disks and used them as the "filling" for peanut butter cups. I poured a thin layer of the chocolate into silicon muffin cups , chilled 'em , then set the flattened peanut dough on top and filled with more chocolate till it covered the filling, then chilled it again. Easy homemade nut butter cups! I haven't tried to recreate it, but finding this recipe reminded me how much I enjoyed them. Thanks for the vid and tips!
I must be from the really old old school when I was in seventh grade cooking class back in the early 70’s we would use a 4 cup Pyrex and fill it with 2 cups of water and then add the peanut butter until it raises to 3 cups and then pour out the water and peanut butter being oily the water wouldn’t stick to the peanut butter either and you get exactly one cup. Anybody else do this?
That's wonderful! I took 7th grade Home Ec in 1973 but I must have missed this tip. I've found that my Junior High Home Ec courses in cooking and sewing were 2 of the most valuable classes I had in school. If I had it all to do over again I'd find a way to add in Home Ec cooking and sewing all through high school.
I was in school HE classes in the early 60's and the water measuring method was how I learned to measure solid items like peanut butter or shortening. Always came out exactly to the required measurements. I still use this way to measure solid items. Although my daughter uses the spray and has tried to convince me to measure this way but I don't always have cooking spray so this is a good alternative. I enjoyed all 4 years of home ec I took in high school these were my favorite classes! Do they even have H Ec in school these days?
This recipe is awesome, but I found the peanut flour made it a little dry. I changed it using 1 cup peanut flour and 1 cup almond flour and the texture was perfect. I also use xylitol instead of Swerve (erythritol) but I need to experiment with powderizing the xylitol in a blender, but the crunchy version I made tasted awesome. I also add a little pure monk fruit powder for extra sweetness. I add xylitol and monk fruit powder to the bakers chocolate as well.
Carolyn, I finally felt good enough after a very long bout with EVERYTHING and made your chocolate peanut butter bars. My son was coming out to check on his mom and so I wanted to make something I just felt he'd love. Mom was a hit. We kept a couple pieces here and sent all the rest with him. Now I'm making more tomorrow and when I was speaking to my son earlier today, he said "Save a big piece for me cause I'll be out on Sunday." It made me so happy. That recipe is a huge hit. Thank you.
This looks like a really yummy recipe! I do wish though that the recipe could be in metric for all the Keto fans in Europe! Is there any one able to convert this recipe?
It would literally taste like dipping a chocolate bar into a jar of unsweetened natural peanut butter but thicker. IF you like that taste, it's very nice. Peanuts do have a good amount of natural sugar.
Ghirardelli makes a 4 oz. baker's chocolate bar and I eat an ounce a day. I can't eat it plain. I add erythritol (Swerve) and melt it together. I like it! I mix walnuts or pecans into it, and peanuts would be great if I had some.
Just curious, but wouldn't there be sugar involved here that would knock you out of ketosis? I'm trying to find other foods to eat while I do keto but most have sugars or lots of carbs which I'm very much trying to avoid.
WOW, they look awesome!! Too dangerous, I would be face down in that pan until it was empty! LOL Great job, thanks for sharing the recipe. Happy Holidays.
Omg a minute into the video and I'm already liking your tips! I would always hate having the scrape my cups...I love the oil spray idea! Cant wait to try your recipe. Thank you
Never thought to make them into bars. Made a home-brew Reese's before using the miniature cupcake molds, papers etc .. it's a ton of work. I'll gladly choose this method!
These do look so yummy and simple to make. They will make a great addition to my keto plan and keep me from indulging in sugary favourites and messing up ketosis
Such an easy recipe and so yummy. Your kids are right. They do taste like Reese’s peanut butter cup but more creamy and healthier. Even my non keto spouse couldn’t resist. Fantastic to make during our latest hot days in Vancouver. Thank you.
I did try making it with the right measurements as mentioned. It was ok. The peanut chunk needs to be flattened more so that when you taste it it's not just peanut flavor to taste but the chocolate too should hit your tastebuds. Thanks for the recepie
Great recipe! I feel so lucky I had all the ingredients on hand, so within less than an hour they're in the fridge cooling for guests arriving in an hour :=) ! You are FABULOUS, many thanks!!! (They are delicious too !)

I didn't even know peanuts had a flour! I thought that peanuts were a low grade nut? Is this wrong??

This will give you a more accurate measurement, the butter is suspended in liquid so you don't have to worry about stickage, and the butter is mostly oil so you don't have to worry about it mixing/breaking apart in the water.

Peanut butter is more dense than water, which weighs 6oz per 3/4 cup. If you don't believe me, try drinking a cup of peanut butter. You can't, it's too dense. Or weigh out an 8oz measuring cup of it and you'll find it weighs somewhere north of 9 oz. So, unless the recipe proportions are given in mass then weighing is in fact less EXACT. Also less easy and quick because you must look up the density.
I have tried many recipes off RUclips but this one is absolutely the best, and I mean the best! Thank you for the share. (Now I have to see if you have any other 'snacks' that we can eat on the keto. )
The problem is that you can only eat one of those per day. I'd have a hard time resisting eating all of it at once.
The struggle is real....
Real struggle, I always end up halfing all the recipes, because I am the only keto eater at my house. Sometimes I drop some treats to my sister to keep from eating all them. We trade treats some times.
ME TOO"" and it looks SO good
Maybe you could freeze them individually so only 1 a day is thawed
One meal a day. Eat them all in one sitting as your daily meal. Consider it a 'cheat' meal that you don't have to fast for a day afterwards to get back into keto.
Really awesome recipe. Just made them, and I found everything, the peanut flour, Lily's chocolate, powdered sugar, and sugar free peanut butter at Publix. Thank you for this idea! Happy Mother's Day!
Glad you liked them!
I've never heard of peanut flower. Interesting! Thank you for this recipe, it looks wonderful.
Its ground peanuts like ground almond for almond flour....I get it at the bulk barn buts ground peanuts
Peanut *flour*
i find it in the bulk aisle of my grocery store with the other all natural supplements (its right next to the fiber and protein jars)
@@KatarinaS. I thought peanut flower was pretty cute. It made me wonder what it would look like if it existed :)
@@tripityourself good name for a cat or small dog ;)
Nice arms! 😎
Just made it and it's in the frig. Thanks!
Oh My! I' love your site. I didn't realize you had a RUclips! I'm so glad I came across this. Totally Subscribed! I made a similar scratch recipe with some almond butter that had separated, so wasn't spreadable anymore, and defatted peanut flour. I formed them into flattened disks and used them as the "filling" for peanut butter cups. I poured a thin layer of the chocolate into silicon muffin cups , chilled 'em , then set the flattened peanut dough on top and filled with more chocolate till it covered the filling, then chilled it again. Easy homemade nut butter cups!
I haven't tried to recreate it, but finding this recipe reminded me how much I enjoyed them. Thanks for the vid and tips!
I can’t wait to try this!
You are incredible, thank you for thinking of us PBC lovers.
I must be from the really old old school when I was in seventh grade cooking class back in the early 70’s we would use a 4 cup Pyrex and fill it with 2 cups of water and then add the peanut butter until it raises to 3 cups and then pour out the water and peanut butter being oily the water wouldn’t stick to the peanut butter either and you get exactly one cup. Anybody else do this?
That's wonderful! I took 7th grade Home Ec in 1973 but I must have missed this tip.
I've found that my Junior High Home Ec courses in cooking and sewing were 2 of the most valuable classes I had in school. If I had it all to do over again I'd find a way to add in Home Ec cooking and sewing all through high school.
I did this in home economics in the 90's.
No but it's a great idea, I have several nut butter recipes and measuring it in the dry cup is a pita.
Yes, it works with butter too, it is called the "water displacement method"--and yes, me too, grade seven cooking class!! Good memory :)
I was in school HE classes in the early 60's and the water measuring method was how I learned to measure solid items like peanut butter or shortening. Always came out exactly to the required measurements. I still use this way to measure solid items. Although my daughter uses the spray and has tried to convince me to measure this way but I don't always have cooking spray so this is a good alternative. I enjoyed all 4 years of home ec I took in high school these were my favorite classes! Do they even have H Ec in school these days?
This recipe is awesome, but I found the peanut flour made it a little dry. I changed it using 1 cup peanut flour and 1 cup almond flour and the texture was perfect. I also use xylitol instead of Swerve (erythritol) but I need to experiment with powderizing the xylitol in a blender, but the crunchy version I made tasted awesome. I also add a little pure monk fruit powder for extra sweetness. I add xylitol and monk fruit powder to the bakers chocolate as well.
Ooh, thank you for this recipe! I'll be making this real soon, looks delicious.
Didn't even know Peanut flour was a thing.
When did all these nut flours pop up?
Carolyn, I finally felt good enough after a very long bout with EVERYTHING and made your chocolate peanut butter bars. My son was coming out to check on his mom and so I wanted to make something I just felt he'd love. Mom was a hit. We kept a couple pieces here and sent all the rest with him. Now I'm making more tomorrow and when I was speaking to my son earlier today, he said "Save a big piece for me cause I'll be out on Sunday." It made me so happy. That recipe is a huge hit. Thank you.
That is so lovely, Mary. Thank you for sharing and glad you're feeling better.
YOU LOOK LIKE MY ENTIRE FAMILY. WHAT THE HECK@@AllDayIDreamAboutFood
This looks like a really yummy recipe! I do wish though that the recipe could be in metric for all the Keto fans in Europe! Is there any one able to convert this recipe?
The beginning of this video set off my google assistant. It then started telling me where 'keys' can usually be found... :/
WOW! I’m definitely making some this week. Thank you!
just measure your peanut butter by weight and get only 1 spoon dirty
I'd like to try this and remove all sweeteners just to see what it tastes like. Peanut butter and dark chocolate.
Sounds very delicious let us know how it goes
yes , interested in how they taste minus the sweetener
It would literally taste like dipping a chocolate bar into a jar of unsweetened natural peanut butter but thicker. IF you like that taste, it's very nice. Peanuts do have a good amount of natural sugar.
Ghirardelli makes a 4 oz. baker's chocolate bar and I eat an ounce a day. I can't eat it plain. I add erythritol (Swerve) and melt it together. I like it! I mix walnuts or pecans into it, and peanuts would be great if I had some.
@@hannabaal150 The baker's bar is a great start to controlling the sweetness of your chocolate treats! Thanks for the reminder about them!
Yayy! Now I can stop giving all my money to Jason. Thank you so much for sharing.
Peanut flour looks like PB2 or PBFit...are they the same?
These look so yummy! Can the butter be substituted for coconut oil or is there something else that would work great?
Just curious, but wouldn't there be sugar involved here that would knock you out of ketosis? I'm trying to find other foods to eat while I do keto but most have sugars or lots of carbs which I'm very much trying to avoid.
What sugar? It's no sugar added peanut butter, keto sweetener, and sugar free chocolate...
WOW, they look awesome!! Too dangerous, I would be face down in that pan until it was empty! LOL Great job, thanks for sharing the recipe. Happy Holidays.
Great visual 😅
@@penelope6619 ... Thank you for your lightning fast reply 😂🤣
Omg a minute into the video and I'm already liking your tips! I would always hate having the scrape my cups...I love the oil spray idea! Cant wait to try your recipe. Thank you
Just bought all the ingredients. Giving this a shot this weekend 🤞
Try not to eat them all (don't be like me!)
You’ve been in the bakery industry haven’t you 😉 most people done know what a bench knife is 😃 I look forward to trying these. Stay Well ❤️😘🙏
I don't call it a bench knife
Just put your bowl on a scale to measure love this recipe thank you 😊
Hi Carolyn, I'm Dennis from Cleveland, Ohio! Thanks for sharing your video about how to make a peanut butter bars!
THANK YOU! I am a type 1 diabetic and these will be amazing for me!👍🏽
Never thought to make them into bars. Made a home-brew Reese's before using the miniature cupcake molds, papers etc .. it's a ton of work. I'll gladly choose this method!
Reminds me of one we were able to get in school in cafeteria. Yummy!!
These do look so yummy and simple to make. They will make a great addition to my keto plan and keep me from indulging in sugary favourites and messing up ketosis
Hello Jean
Such an easy recipe and so yummy. Your kids are right. They do taste like Reese’s peanut butter cup but more creamy and healthier. Even my non keto spouse couldn’t resist. Fantastic to make during our latest hot days in Vancouver. Thank you.
Thank you!
Why dont you just weight the peanut butter out by grams. Way less messy and eliminates one step
I did try making it with the right measurements as mentioned. It was ok. The peanut chunk needs to be flattened more so that when you taste it it's not just peanut flavor to taste but the chocolate too should hit your tastebuds.
Thanks for the recepie
This recipe is SO GOOD that FACEBOOK tried to BAN IT!
True story!!!
Great recipe! I feel so lucky I had all the ingredients on hand, so within less than an hour they're in the fridge cooling for guests arriving in an hour :=) ! You are FABULOUS, many thanks!!! (They are delicious too !)
So glad to hear it!
I wonder if you could use PB2 powder vs peanut flower?
As long as you get the one without any added sugar, then yes it works.
@@AllDayIDreamAboutFood All the PB powder I could find have added sugar, including PB2and PBfit.
@@ChaChaGigi Online is your best option! Search Amazon for "peanut flour" and you should have better luck.
I'll just eat a pan full every day and lose weight! Yay
I wish! Best to eat your sweets right after your meal. You do have to count the macros. Carbs, protein, fats.
I prefer grams of the ingredients 😂 so much more easier than popping in a cup and measuring
Omg I love making these with regular ingredients before doing keto! I thought I would have to give these up! Thank you so I hope!!! These can be also Buckeyes balls of yumminess!
Lol i.used to make this out if peanut butter and chocolate cake icing until I became diabetic 😂🤣😂
Been sugar free for a year now. Made this desert to start my journey, never looked back. Just wanted to say thanks for the help!
Welcome!
Sooo yummy, greetings from Germany!
