I’m all about no effort when it comes to cooking! These peanut butter cookies are made from scratch, but only take 3-4 ingredients, so they are about as easy as box cookies. Growing up, they were my brother’s specialty, so we ate them quite often. I would suggest you double the batch if you plan to share, since it makes a small amount.
Ingredients:
1 egg
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup sugar
Hershey’s Kisses (optional)
Preheat oven to 350. Mix the first three ingredients together. Form cookies and put them on the cookie sheet. Bake for 6-8 minutes. You don’t want them over baked. (Well, at least I don’t. They are perfect when they are really soft.) If you chose to add the kisses, put them on when the cookies come OUT of the oven (or you’ll have a big mess!) Just gently push them into the cookie.
With all of the peanut butter flavors (possibly even Nutella?) on the market, you should be able to try this recipe in a bunch of different ways. And, of course, you could always change up the toppings to make this your own as well.
