Remove the cookies and place on parchment paper to cool.
In a saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil until melted. Slowly stir in the chocolate chips. Once the chips have melted completely, transfer to a small dish.
Gently dip the cookies into the melted chocolate and set back on the parchment paper. Sprinkle on your favorite toppings like sea salt or crumbled peanut butter cups.
Using a decorating squeeze bottle, add a few scoops of peanut butter into the bottle and warm in the microwave for 30 seconds. Drizzle peanut butter on top of the cookies.
