Kodiak Pancake Mix vs. Self Rising Flour

These peanut butter cookies are made with Kodiak Cakes Power Pancake mix which creates a softer texture cookie and is the key ingredient of keeping these cookies to two points. If you are unable to find Kodiak Pancake mix or want a denser cookie you may substitute the Kodiak Cakes Protein Pancake mix or 1 and 1/3 cup self rising flour. The self rising flour will give these cookies a denser texture, however the point value may vary depending on the brand you use.

Ingredients:

-1 1/3 cup (141g) Kodiak Cakes Power Pancake mix

-1/4 cup (21g) brown sugar substitute Lakanto Golden Sweetener

-1/2 cup (42g) white sugar substitute (I used Truvia)

-4 Tbsp (56) American Dream Nut Butter (Use code LEXI to save)

-2 Tbsp (15g) peanut butter powder (I used Kingsline Nutrition)

-1 large egg 

-1 tsp vanilla extract

-1/4 cup water

-19 milk chocolate Hershey Kiss’s

Directions:

-Whisk in the egg, water, and extract until smooth.

-Add pancake mix along with the peanut butter powder and stir until fully combined and a smooth dough is formed. 

-Drop the dough by 1 rounded tablespoon onto cookie sheet, about 2-inches apart. -Flatten each ball with the back of a spoon or cookie scoop.

-Cook for 8-10 minutes or until edges are lightly golden.

-After removing them from the oven, place a Hershey Kiss in the center of each cookie.

-Then move the cookies to a cooling rack at room temperature.
