I made these the other night. They’re quite good but they fall apart. I put them in the refrigerator and even overnight they seemed to fall apart very easily the next day. Is there something I did wrong?
So easy & delicious! Not sure why but I had to bake longer, did 15 mins. Ate one after 12 min & it didn’t seem baked all the way through. Definitely need them to sit and cool before eating, so they harden on the outside a bit. Yummy!
now if I wanted to keto this, basically use the alternatives correct suck as monkfruit brown sugar, no sugar peanut butter, and lillies sugar free semi sweet chocolate chips?
