Easy (Flourless!) Peanut Butter Cookies
The EASIEST peanut butter cookie recipe turns out soft and flavorful. Chocolate chips, optional!
Ingredients
- 1 cup peanut butter we recommend standard Jiff or Skippy, not natural style pb
- 3/4 cup lightly packed brown sugar
- 1 large or extra large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon table salt
- optional: heaping 1/2 cup chopped chocolate or chocolate chips
- I recommend dark or semi-sweet
- optional: 1/3 cup oats
- optional: sugar for rolling
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Beat peanut butter and brown sugar until smooth. Add egg, vanilla, baking soda, and salt. Mix for about a minute. Shape into balls, and if desired roll in sugar. Flatten with a criss cross pattern with a fork, or simply flatten with the bottom of a glass. If you'd like to add Oatmeal Chocolate Chip PB Cookies, add chocolate chips and oats. Bake for 8-9 minutes, don't over-bake, and let them sit on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. Makes 18-20 cookies.
