Description
Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies are pure magic—a delicious homemade treat made with just three simple ingredients!
Ingredients
- 1 egg, slightly beaten
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 cup organic peanut butter (smooth or chunky)
- Chocolate wafers, optional
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a stand mixer, beat together the egg, brown sugar, and peanut butter until smooth and creamy.
- Shape the dough into 24 small balls, about 1 inch each. Arrange them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Flatten each ball slightly with a fork to create the classic crisscross pattern.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops look slightly cracked.
- Allow the cookies to rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Optional Extra:
For an elegant touch, melt chocolate wafers in a double boiler over low heat. Dip one side of each cooled cookie into the melted chocolate, then place the cookies on waxed paper to cool and set.
