New recipe for July is homemade Nutter Butter cookies.
Idea came from this emmymade video, with the original recipe coming from here.
Recipe calls specifically for natural peanut butter, which I had, but also no sugar added, which mine does have, despite being labelled natural. Texture and taste came out just fine, though, so it doesn’t seem to have been too big a deal.
I didn’t bother trying to make them look like peanuts. At the size I made them, I ended up with just over five dozen cookies (the full sandwich – close to eleven dozen individual cookies).
I followed Emmy’s suggestion of making the icing thicker and just grabbing little balls of it to smoosh between the cookies, rather than piping it on.
I’ve never actually tried Nutter Butter cookies, so I have no idea how close a copycat they are, but they are very tasty.
