    Does the peanut butter stand out in flavor? Also, would these work for oatmeal cream pies? I haven’t tried these yet lol

      The flavor is pretty mild, but if you’re concerned you could swap it for almond butter, or another nut butter with a flavor you enjoy. As for making oatmeal cream pies, I haven’t tried it myself so I can’t say for sure, but it should be okay. The cookies don’t have the same texture as regular baked cookies, so keep that in mind. Let me know how they turn out! 🙂
