As I watched one of the main characterstake her chocolate chip cookies off the baking sheet, I drooledat the prospect of some freshly baked cookies.I wanted something that was easy, quick, and didn't require meto go out and buy ingredients. So I searched the Internet,figuring peanut butter cookies would do the trick. I wassurprised to find a peanut butter cookie recipe that didn'trequire flour. In fact, it didn't require many ingredients at all.My curiousity peaked, I tried it out:Flourless, 3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies1 cup sugar (or 3/4 cup, if you prefer)1 large egg1 cup peanut butter (crunchy or smooth)Combine sugar and egg in mixing bowl, stirring until smooth.Add peanut butter and mix thoroughly. Roll into walnut-sizedballs.Place the balls on ungreased cookie sheet(s) at least 2" apart.Flatten with the tines of a fork, then turn the 90 degrees anduse fork again t create cross hatches.Bake 10 minutes at 375 degrees Fahrenheit (or until done). Letcool in pan for 1 minute before removing to cooling rack.Leaving them on the sheet for too long will make them hard.Yes, the cookies are soft after they come from the oven. Idon't know how long they stay soft out in the open though, as Ihad a couple of cousins come over while they were baking and weall pretty much destroyed the cookies.Still, if you plan on keeping them (or any other type ofcookies for that matter) for a while, then put a slice of breadon the bottom of an air tight container and place the cookies ontop. If you have any cookies left when the bread gets hard,replace the piece of bread.I hope you try this peanut butter cookie recipe and love it. Iknow I'll be pulling this one out whenever a cookie craving hitsme again. Article Tags: Peanut Butter Cookies, Peanut Butter, Butter Cookies Source: Free Articles from ArticlesFactory.com
