With these soft and chewy cookies, you get two great tastes in every bite: peanut butter and chocolate.

If you love peanut butter (we do!), these cookies are sure to be a new favorite dessert for you. They have just six ingredients, so they’re ready to go in minutes.

3. Air Fryer Stuffed Peaches >

Fresh-picked peaches are one of summer’s sweet treats all by themselves. However, they’re even better when they’re flavored with brown sugar, cinnamon and melted butter. “Bake” them in your air fryer until they are warm, tender and juicy. Granola adds a little crunch, making this a simple “peach crisp” that anyone can whip up in minutes. Don’t have an air fryer? You can heat them on your grill, too.

You can enjoy them alone or slice them up and use them as a topping for “nice” cream (Check out these recipes! >), yogurt or even Nutrisystem Buttermilk Waffles.
