Recipe for flour-less peanut butter cookies

The other day I had a sweet tooth craving hit me like a bus. We don't normally stock unhealthy food because I believe in removing temptations. But the other day I didn't care about eating healthy or the harms of refined sugar, I just needed something sweet to eat. I was all set to go to the store to buy ice cream, or Oreos or something, but M asked if we could bake something instead and I pride myself on trying to never turn down quality time with M.

However, we lacked key ingredients for traditional cookies, mainly milk. So I turn to one of my trusty cookbooks, a collection of recipes put out by a church in northern Minnesota in the early 80's. While scanning for recipes I found flour less peanut butter cookies! One of the easiest recipes to make, only using four ingredients!

FLOUR-LESS PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES

1 cup peanut butter (chunky or creamy)

1 cup white sugar

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla

Mix ingredients together until fully mixed. Create one inch balls and place on cookie sheet. 

Use a fork to slighty push down on each roll. 

Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Makes about 3 dozen. 

One of the easiest cookies I've made and quickly becoming my favorite peanut butter cookie!
