Tonight I was craving some comfort food, but not the calories and carbs that come along with it. So I took a stab in the dark and worked up some easy cookies.
1 cup Skippy Natural peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 large egg
1/4 cup flour
Mix the egg, sugar and peanut butter in a bowl, add flour little by little until the consistency is more cookie-dough-like. Trust me, it starts pretty watery. Once firmed up, drop by the spoonful on a cookie sheet and bake at 350 for 12-15 minutes. Makes a dozen cookies. Note: these will hold their shape, so if they are funky shaped they’ll stay that way. Let them cool 5-10 minutes then chow down!!
I am not a baker by trade, so any feedback is appreciated.
