Instructions

    1.
    In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, blend room temperature peanut butter until creamy. Add tahini and erythritol, blending until evenly mixed. Incorporate the egg and vanilla extract. In a separate small bowl, combine hemp hearts (seeds), hemp flour (powder), cocoa powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in the stand mixer, blending until a cohesive cookie dough forms.
    2.
    The cookie dough will be soft. Transfer the dough to a sheet of parchment paper and shape it into an 8-inch log. If the dough is too soft to handle, chill it in the refrigerator briefly. Wrap the log tightly in the parchment paper, twisting the ends to seal. Freeze the cookie dough log for 60 minutes to chill thoroughly.
    3.
    Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use a non-stick baking sheet. Remove the cookie dough log from the freezer and unwrap it. Slice the log into ½-inch thick pieces. Arrange the cookies delicately on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly.
    4.
    Bake the cookies for approximately 18 minutes, or until the edges are slightly crisp and the centers remain soft. The tops of the cookies should exhibit a slight golden-brown color. Allow the cookies to cool completely before serving. Store the fully cooled cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
