Customisation Craving: Feeling adventurous? This recipe is just the starting point! Here are some ways to make it your own:

- Chocolate Chip Twist: Want to add a touch of decadence? Fold in some chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate into the softened cookie dough before shaping the doukies.

The Perfect Cookie Hack Recipe:
Ingredients:
- 1 tub Charlie's Raspberry Doughnut Edible Cookie Dough
- 1 jar 99th Monkey Pistachio & Almond Butter
- Freeze-dried or fresh raspberries (for garnish)
- Parchment paper
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: The first step is to get your oven nice and hot. Crank it up to 190°C (375°F) so it's ready for your cookie creations.
- Line Your Baking Tray: Grab a baking tray and line it with a sheet of parchment paper. This will prevent your doukies from sticking and make cleanup a breeze.
- Shape the Dough: Now comes the fun part! Open the tub of Charlie's Raspberry Doughnut Edible Cookie Dough and get ready to roll. Using your hands, roll walnut-sized balls of dough.
- Bake Those Beauties: Gently place the rolled dough balls onto your prepared baking tray. Make sure they're spaced out a little to allow for spreading during baking. Pop the tray into your preheated oven and let the doukies bake for 10 minutes.
- Cooling Down: Patience is a virtue! Once the 10 minutes are up, remove the baking tray from the oven and let the cookies cool completely on the tray.
- Spread the Nut Butter Love: Time to unleash the magic of 99th Monkey Nut Butter! Grab your jar of Pistachio & Almond Butter and spread a generous dollop on top of each cooled cookie. The creamy nut butter adds a delightful layer of flavour and richness.
- Raspberry Rhapsody: The final touch! Decorate your cookies with a sprinkle of your choice – freeze-dried or fresh raspberries. The vibrant colour and tart flavour perfectly complement the rest of the ingredients.
- Serve and Enjoy!: Now for the best part – gather your loved ones, grab your favourite drink, and indulge in these delectable Raspberry Pistachio Doukies.
Tips & Tricks:
- Want chewier cookies? Bake them for a minute or two less.
- No freeze-dried raspberries? Fresh raspberries work just fine! Just be mindful of any excess moisture that might affect the cookies' texture.
- For an extra decadent touch, drizzle your cookies with melted chocolate after spreading the nut butter.
- Leftover dough? Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
With this simple recipe and the incredible versatility of 99th Monkey Nut Butter, you can create delicious and satisfying treats in no time. So, ditch the store-bought cookies and get baking! Your taste buds (and friends) will thank you.
