3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies

Who else loves peanut butter?

To celebrate National Peanut Butter Lover’s Day today I made these 3-ingredient PB cookies. 😋

I love peanut butter and anything made with peanut butter! I’ve been working on these healthier peanut butter cookies for a couple of years, because I’m so picky about my PB cookies.

• 1 egg

1. Combine ingredients well and refrigerate for 20 minutes or longer.
2. Using a baking sheet prepared with parchment paper, divide dough into 12 balls and place on pan. Flatten each ball and add fork marks in opposite directions on each cookie.
3. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 8 minutes.
4. For more then 12 cookies, decrease the time of cooking. For less than 12 cookies, they may need to cook a minute or two more.
