Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies

Do recipe get any easier than this? I could do this one in my sleep... and they are delicious! I doubled the batch and they made exactly 4 dozen... I LOVE THAT! I love it when the come out perfectly even and you don't either have to jam a few more on so they stick together or start a new tray with all four of them. I got this one from Joy the Baker's website (I have a link on the side.). Hope you enjoy this simple goodness!

Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies

The Gourmet Cookbook

makes about two dozen cookies

1 cup all-natural chunky or smooth peanut butter

1 cup sugar (1/2 cup brown sugar and 1/2 cup granulated sugar)

1 egg

1 teaspoon baking soda

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a baking sheet with butter and set aside. In a mixer combine peanut butter and sugars until well combined, about 2 minutes. Add egg and baking soda and mix for another 2 minutes. Roll into walnut sized balls and create a cris-cross pattern with a fork. If you’d like, add a few chocolate pieces to the top of the cookies. Bake for 10 minutes, until lightly browned. Cool on a baking sheet for two minutes, then transfer to… your mouth.

    Yum! Thanks for the recipe. I'm always looking for ways to take out the flour or insert whole wheat.

    Hey, this is a good recipe for packing in the protein without as many carbs! I won't ask how bad they are for you, but they look delicious . . . :)

    I have a similar recipe. It tastes so good and it is a small batch, so I don't end up eating three dozen cookies in one day!

    I FINALLY made these last night and really enjoyed them. I even used Splenda and they still turned out good. Now if I could only figure out how to take out the fat.
