½ cup butter, softened (not melted)
1 cup peanut butter, no additives or sweeteners
½ cup honey
1-cup nut flour
2 eggs
¼ teaspoon baking soda

Cream butter until soft. Add peanut butter and mix thoroughly. Add remaining ingredients. Drop on greased cookie sheet and bake in 325-degree oven for 10-13 minutes. The tops should be brown and the centers soft.

You can purchase nut flours (almond, hazelnut, etc.) at Whole Foods, My Organic Market and Trader Joe’s (Bob’s Red Mill is a good brand) or make your own by finely grinding crispy nuts in a food processor. The crispy nut recipe can be found here.
