I may have posted this recipe before. It's an easy recipe to fall back on when you're short on time or ingredients.
Peanut Butter Cookies
1 C peanut butter (crunchy or smooth)
1 C sugar
1 egg
Mix together all three ingredients. It helps if the peanut butter is at room temperature. Grease your hands. Roll the cookies into 1 inch balls (should make 12-14 cookies). Dip a fork in sugar (dip it in water or run it over a cookie first). Lightly press down on the cookies to make grid marks.
Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 10-12 minutes. Cool on cookie sheet for 1-2 minutes before moving to a rack. They will be crumbly until they cool.
This recipe is great if you're out of flour, if you're baking for a gluten-free person (we have a couple youth at church who can't eat gluten), or if you just need a super easy recipe. I can whip up a double batch in no time and I always get compliments.

I love this recipe too :) I always have the ingredients on hand which is nice :) Yum :)
Thanks - I find myself going a little crazy sometimes when I need to come up with a gluten-free dessert. Luckily I don't have to very often - all I can come up with are no-bake cookies. And who can resist PB? Certainly not me!
Wow, this is so easy! I hardly ever bake, so it's a perfect dessert for me to make!!
What??? That really works?? Awesome!!
