1 cup Creamy Peanut Butter 1/2 cup Hemp Hearts I used Bob's Red Mill 1/2 cup Coconut Sugar 3 tablespoons Spelt Flour 1 teaspoon Baking Powder 1 Egg 3/4 cup Chocolate Chips divided, your choice of dark or milk 1 teaspoon Pure Almond Extract Red Fondant for decorating, optional
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Add the peanut butter to a microwave safe bowl and microwave it for 25 seconds so it’s runny.
Add in the hemp hearts, the coconut sugar, spelt flour, baking powder, egg, almond extract, and 1/2 cup chocolate chips.
Shape into heart shapes, place on a parchment lined baking tray and bake for 12 minutes.
When cooled, decorate with red fondant hearts and melt the 1/4 cup chocolate chips and use it to draw little heart beats on the heart shaped cookies.
You can use 2/3 cup brown sugar instead of coconut sugar if you’d like a sweeter cookie.
