I had cookies on my mind today… better yet, peanut butter cookies. 🙂 If you love peanut butter (like me) chances are you love chocolate and peanut butter, I mean let’s face it the two just go together like bread and butter! And so they should… and they should never I repeat never be apart! 😉 I also wanted to drizzle something today… so these peanut butter chocolate-drizzled cookies were born…. and guess what?? They are only 2 smart points each.. yup that’s right, so go ahead and eat a few. 🙂

Would this work with pb2 somehow?
Hi Sara.. I don’t use PB2, I am very picky with my peanut butter lol.. that said it might, although I don’t think it will drizzle as nice 😉

Is the Light peanut butter available in the USA?
Not Kraft, its a Canadian brand, but you can use the Jiff whips or similar
Would reduced fat peanut butter be the same as light? I use the reduced fat and it is 5 pp for 2T. Thanks! I’m definitely planning on making these.
Hi, sounds about the same, the one I use is 3SP per Tbsp
