3-Ingredient Peanut-Butter-Lover Cookies

Thank you so much for this recipe! I am a 1st grade teacher, at home now, doing Distance Learning, and I just posted this recipe for something fun for the kids to do with their parents! I can't wait for them to get out of the oven! (The cookies, not the kids! Hahahaha!)

The original true recipe is 3 1's, I know it sounds crazy, but it works! You will amaze your friends and co workers when you tell them there is NO flour in this recipe.... 1 cup granulated sugar 1 cup peanut butter 1 egg Mix together, scoop into 1 T. balls, put 1" apart on baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Criss cross with a fork, and bake in middle rack for 9 min at 375°. Let rest one minute then remove from pan and cool to store.

I have made these for years, also. My recipe is 1 cup creamy or crunchy peanut butter, 3/4 - 1 cup sugar (depends on your sweet tooth), 1 large egg (beaten). Additions, I like: 1 tsp vanilla extract, 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips a pinch of salt. The reason these do not need flour is the egg. It is just like flourless chocolate cake.

Wonderful! I use a sugar coated fork to flatten a bit and then push 3 or 4 chocolate chips onto the top. My co-workers love it when I bring these in. Thanks for the post!

Delicious! I like that they're not too sweet. I used the sugar-sprinkle, fork-flattening method and they turned out great. Use natural peanut butter and an omega-3 enhanced egg to make it healthier. If you divide it into 16 cookies, then 2 cookies equals 1 serving of peanut butter. I'm not sure I'd ever make them for a pot luck or function because they're slightly crumbly, but they make a fantastic home dessert.
