Ingredients:
- 1 cup peanut butter (smooth or chunky)
- 1 cup sugar (granulated or brown sugar)
- 1 large egg
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
- Mix the Dough:
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the peanut butter, sugar, and egg. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Form the Cookies:
- Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Use a fork to gently flatten each dough ball and create a criss-cross pattern on top, pressing down lightly.
- Bake the Cookies:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are golden brown.
- Be careful not to overbake, as these cookies can become dry quickly.
- Cool and Serve:
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy:
- Once the cookies have cooled, enjoy your simple, chewy treats!
