3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the peanut butter, sugar, and egg. Mix until well combined. The dough should come together easily.
  3. Form Cookies: Take small portions of the dough and roll them into balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each.
  4. Flatten with a Fork: Using a fork, make a crisscross pattern on the top of each cookie by gently pressing down. This not only gives the cookies a classic look but also helps them bake evenly.
  5. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Be careful not to overbake; the cookies might look a bit soft, but they will firm up as they cool.
  6. Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
