Can I bake this into cookies?

This dough is meant to be eaten raw. If you’d like a baked version, consider adding baking powder and adjusting the flour.

How can I make it sweeter?

If you prefer a sweeter taste, add a little extra honey or maple syrup, or mix in stevia or monk fruit sweetener.

Yes! Crunchy peanut butter will add extra texture and a nutty crunch.
