Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies.

While perusing through a few of my favourite blog sites, I came across this cookie recipe and I would like to share it with you! They are quick, easy and incredibly delicious! From the time I found the recipe to the time I had a nice plate of thirty cookies sitting on the counter and all the cookie sheets washed and put away was literally 45 minutes tops. So here it is:


Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies
(Makes 1 dozen)

1 cup of smooth peanut butter
1/4 cup of white sugar
1/2 cup of brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. of vanilla extract
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Mix all ingredients in one bowl until well blended.
  • Spoon dough (about the size of a golf ball) onto ungreased cookie sheet.
  • Dip a fork in some additional white sugar, and gently smash each spoonful of cookie dough until it's flat, using the fork horizontally and vertically so it creates little grooves on top, dipping occasionally back into the white sugar as needed.
  • Bake for approximately 10 minutes (may be more or less depending on the size of your spoonfuls). The cookies are done when they are browned on the bottom and edges but still seem puffy and undercooked on top. Let them rest on the cookie sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
And voila! How quickly these cookies are to whip up make them a great treat to bring along to a party or when hosting one of your own. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did!
