Today, for new things Monday, I thought I would make something from Paula Dean. I've never made anything using one of her recipes. I found an easy recipe for Peanut Butter Cookies that only used 4 ingredients! :)
1 cup of peanut butter (I normally use reduced fat PB but picked up the wrong kind)1 1/3 cup Sugar (Paula says to use Splenda, but I don't use Splenda)
1 egg
1 tsp Vanilla extract
In a mixing bowl, combine PB, 1 cup of sugar, the egg and vanilla.
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and grease a large cookie sheet. 
Roll the dough into balls. Paula says walnuts but I made them a little smaller. Place the balls on the greased cookie sheet.
With a fork, dipped in sugar to prevent sticking, press a crisscross design on each cookie. I sprinkled some sugar on top of the cookies. (Paula says to put sugar on after they are baked, but I decided to do it before) Bake for 12 min. or until they seem done to you. 
Finished cookies! Serve with milk! :)
omg i love these cookies! no idea there was a 4 ingredient recipe - how cool!
ReplyDeletethey look so yummy! :)
wow, no butter (paula's fav)! the cookies look great!
ReplyDeleteA Kristen- Thanks!! They were good!
ReplyDelete@ Ashley- I know!! haha Thanks!
I would def take them out when they are slightly under-done so they stay nice and soft. :)
