Amazing and Soft Peanut Butter Carob Chunk Cookies

[solarvegan]

These truly are AMAZING! Thank you for sharing this recipe. I used what I had around, which was sunflower butter instead of peanut, barley flakes instead of oatmeal, and carob. They turned out soft and smooth and delicious! I can't wait to make them again for a party this weekend; I think I'll try peanut butter/chocolate and a cashew butter/carob variation. YUM!

I used peanuts instead of chocolate and oil instead of margarine. These crumbled up very easily, though.

these were really good! i used chocolate chips instead of carob chunks but otherwise followed the recipe. i've had trouble with peanut butter recipes in the past-- they generally come out too crumbly, too flat, or too crunchy-- but these were delish! thanks!

i too followed the recipe exactly except for using choc-chips instead of carob, and they turned out very well indead! great soft texture and the maple syprup goes so well i can't believe i never thought of putting it in peanut butter cookies before. I think this will be my staple peanut butter cookie recipe from now on. thanks!

These cookies are amazing. They are very soft and chewy. I used carob chips and pieces of raw chocolate. I used spelt flour instead of regular flour + sucanat instead of brown sugar. I also added a lot of extra nuts. Thanks for a wonderful recipe. I hope you will add some more recipes in the future.

I'm sure that if I could have stopped eating the dough, I would have had more delicious soft, addictive cookies....
but theres always next time, right!

These are fantastic, very very good recipe!  Good vegan pb cookie recipes have been hard for me to find, so I am very excited about this.

I followed the recipe to a T (something I often do not do on this site).  The only bad part of these was my messup...my oven is small and runs a bit too hot and I mistakenly put these on one of the lower cooking racks (intending to put them on the higher rack).  Thus, the bottoms are one step away from burned (not  black, but way darker than I would like).  I will definitely make these again and put them on the correct rack!  Also, I suggest taking them out a minute or two before you think you need to.  They keep cooking a bit as they cool, and that preserves a really good texture.

5 stars!

Oh my god...I love you for these!!     Excuse me while I have another cookie (and store the rest so I don't eat them all).

I am pregnant and I have found me a comfort food.  I made these because I was craving peanut butter and they are GOOD.  I might just eat the whole batch lol( I will share with hubby).  I give these 2 thumbs up!!!!!!!

Storytime! I made a batch of these one Saturday afternoon and took some with me to my friend's band show downtown. None of my friends wanted any because they were so full from eating a pizza dinner (dumb pepperoni-eating kids) - not because they looked disgusting, they were beauts. (I left out the carob chunks and then melted some chocolate after they were cooled and dipped them in it, so half was covered in chcolate, other side plain). Anyway, we had to get rid of them because the bar wouldn't let us in with food, so two of my friends and I went around that street giving these cookies to homeless people. They loved them and were so thankful! One guy asked who made them and I said I did and he said they were really good. So that was fun. Ok, storytime over, *tucks you all in*

I had to substitute a couple of things I used in place of brown sugar was raw honey and didnt have any carob so I used raw cocoa and a little agave. Other than that they were very good.
