Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Kiss Cookies (Low-FODMAP, Gluten-Free)

Obviously, I’m on a chocolate kick right now. I love chocolate and can eat it as long as I don’t overdo it. Dark chocolate is my favorite. I even liked dark chocolate as a child. I was always the weird kid who chose the Special Dark in the package of Hershey’s miniatures. I also remember being the only girl in my first grade class to pick the black licorice instead of strawberry when the teacher handed them out as a treat one day. My weirdness started young.


I didn’t make these cookies for me though. I made them for our neighbor. He helped us blow out our driveway after the snow storm last week so we could get to work. He deserved some cookies for that. Since I had a package of Hershey’s Special Dark Kisses hanging out in my pantry, I thought of these cookies. They are so easy. Only four ingredients. And naturally gluten-free.

  1. I'm posting a comment because there are none and this recipe is AHHHHMAZING!

    I was very reluctant to try this b/c there are only 3 ingredients. (and no comments)

    When I tell you these cookies were delicious I am not kidding.

    They were so easy I had 1/2 a bag of kisses left that I made another batch. (I actually rolled my balls into sugar before baking.)

    I made them 1 wk ago and will be making again this weekend! Absolutely perfect recipe, easy to make and incredibly delicious!

    This will be the only peanut butter cookie you EVER make again!!!!!
