I felt like baking yesterday, but I didn’t have many ingredients around, so I tried this recipe for peanut butter cookies. It couldn’t be any easier, and it was quite good. Really, the recipe just calls for peanut butter & sugar, so that’s all what you are tasting, but lord, is that good! The original recipe said it’d made /70/ cookies – I got 18 out of it. With the modifications I made, this is the recipe:
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 cup natural peanut butter
- 3 Tbsp. flour
- 1 tsp. baking soda
Preheat oven to 350F
Grease two cookie sheets
In the bowl of a mixer, lightly beat the egg. Add the sugars and mix well. Add the peanut butter and mix well. Add the flour and (yes) mix well. Add the baking soda and once again mix well.
Roll small balls of dough in your hands, place onto the cookie sheets and flatten with a fork, making a criss-cross pattern.
Bake for about 7 minutes.
