Chocolate chunk peanut butter cup cookies combine the best two flavors into one perfect bite! These soft-baked cookies are gluten-free, dairy-free and topped with some homemade dark chocolate peanut butter cups.

Peanut butter cup cookies have been on my mind for way too long. These delicious soft baked cookies combine the delicious flavors of peanut butter and dark chocolate into one dreamy bite.
They’re made from oat flour, have a delicious peanut butter flavor, and are topped with a simple homemade dark chocolate peanut butter cup.

The best peanut butter cookies
These cookies are truly for all of you peanut butter lovers. They’re based off of my oat flour cookies, and have the perfect fluffy texture.
They’re sweetened with coconut sugar, take only 10 minutes to make, and taste amazing with a glass of milk- almond is my go-to for cookies!

How to make Peanut Butter Cup Cookies
These simple cookies come together in 4 easy steps:
1. Make your dark chocolate peanut butter cups
I like to make homemade peanut butter cups in large baking cups, but you can easily swap your favorite store-bought peanut butter cups to save some time!
2. Prepare your cookie dough
Combine your cookie ingredients to make the dough
3. Bake the cookies
Scoop your cookies onto a parchment lined tray and bake them for 10 minutes.
4. Press the peanut butter cups into the cookies
Remove the cookies from the oven, and press your chopped peanut butter cups into the top of the cookies. The peanut butter cups get added at the end so that they don’t melt completely into the cookie.

They’re sweet, salty, and melt in your mouth. These cookies are also gluten-free if you use certified GF oat flour, and dairy-free friendly!
Storage Tips
- Store your cooled cookies in an airtight container for 4-5 days at room temperature, or keep them refrigerated for up to 1 week.
- If you have any leftover or wanted to prep them ahead of time, you can freeze the cookies for up to 3 months.
