Alice's comment - PersonalCooker
Very often, recipes based on peanut butter suggest the combination with another fat (such as butter prepared with animal milk or margarine). Personally, I must admit that these cookies made entirely with peanut butter are my favorite because they are light and extraordinarily aromatic.Nutritional values and Health Comment on the recipe
Peanut Butter Cookies are pastry products rich in carbohydrates, with a fair amount of lipids and proteins. The breakdown of fatty acids is in favor of unsaturated ones, the cholesterol content is moderate while the fibers are abundant. For these reasons, in small portions, Peanut Butter Cookies are not to be excluded from the diet against certain metabolic diseases. The average portion is around 30g (110kcal).
