Instructions

1

Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2

Mash Sweet Potato: In a large mixing bowl, mash the cooked sweet potato until completely smooth with no lumps.
3

Mix Dough: Add the peanut butter, cocoa powder, honey, vanilla extract, and baking powder. Mix well with a spoon or spatula until a thick, uniform dough forms.
4

Shape & Top: Scoop dough into 6 equal portions on the prepared baking tray. Gently flatten each portion into a cookie shape. Press dark chocolate chips on top if using.
5

Bake & Cool: Bake for 12–15 minutes until set on top but still soft in the center. Let cool on the tray for 10 minutes — they will firm up to a perfect fudgy texture as they cool!

Notes & Tips

🍠 Very Soft Sweet Potato: Cook your sweet potato (bake, steam, or microwave) until extremely tender for the smoothest dough.
🍪 Do Not Overbake: The cookies should look soft when pulled out of the oven. They set into a fudgy texture as they cool on the tray.
🥜 Natural Peanut Butter: Use 100% natural peanut butter with just peanuts and salt for the best texture and health benefits.
🧂 Sea Salt Flakes: Sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on top before baking to enhance the deep chocolate flavor!
