Easiest Peanut Butter Cookies
Homemade cookies in a flash!
You don't have to be a great baker to make these quick and easy peanut butter cookies.There is no rolling or cookie cutting to be done; in-fact it's a very simple process and you more then likely have all the ingredients already! This is why this is a great recipe to keep on hand on those days you want something sweet but fresh out of snacks.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup of Peanut Butter (crunchy or creamy - whatever you prefer!)
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 egg (beaten)
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 350° degrees.
In a bowl, stir all ingredients until combined. Shape level tablespoonfuls into balls. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets; flatten with a fork, pressing on one side, then on the other, creating a criss cross look on the cookie. Bake at 350° for 9-10 minutes or until set. Cool for 5 minutes; remove to wire racks.
Tips:
Silicone baking sheets work great with these cookies.
Using a butter knife, spread a little PB on in the middle of each cookie before baking. Tastes yummy!
