¾ Cup Unsalted Natural Peanut Butter
⅓ Cup Honey
2 Tbsp Coconut Oil (Melted)
1 Large Egg
1½ Tsp Baking Powder

1
**Preheat oven to 350°F
2
In the large bow, combine peanut butter, honey, egg, pinch of salt, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
3
Add flour and baking soda and mix until combined.
4
Drizzle in coconut oil and mix until dough begins to stick together. This is a dry dough, so as long as it sticks when pressed together, the dough is good to go!
5
Line baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
6
Press dough into a ball. Roll out onto a clean, flat surface and use cookie cutter to press out heart shapes. Place the heart-shaped cookies on baking sheet. Gather dough scraps and repeat until no dough remains.
7
Bake at 350°F for 8-11 minutes or until the cookies begin to turn golden brown on top. These cookies won't spread out much, if at all.
8
In an oven safe Bowl, melt vegan butter. Add honey and mix until homogenous.
9
Spoon honey butter over the hot cookies and let the cookies absorb this liquid gold. The cookies should look shiny like they're glazed with honey butter.
