Easy Peanut Butter Chip Cookies

"This recipe is from the side of a Kraft Peanut Butter jar. It's super easy and perfect for people who can't eat gluten. Substitute Splenda granular for sugar for a lower calorie version. I use the reduced fat peanut butter."

  1. I think this was fantastic! I said to my husband there was no way that few ingredients would create a cookie! Boy was I wrong. I used the exact recipe for the first batch and played a little with the second. I used half regular and half brown sugar and topped some with choc. chips and others with jam. The brown sugar really added a great molasses, almost gingerbread quality to it. All of them were great, the original recipe and the additions I did with the second batch. Plus I love telling people what little is in it! I will definitely remember this for any gluten allergies I come across. I made these for a neighbor who has brought me terrific food everyday since we moved in last week, I wanted to be safe and use the gluten free recipe. She was impressed and also asked for the recipe. Plus I like that I always have the ingredients on hand.
     
  2. Very good cookies. I used both natural and regular smooth peanut butter. I baked them for the full 15 minutes and they came out a bit overdone (but not burnt). They were delicious anyways, and next time i'll put them in for 12 minutes instead. Thanks for the easy recipe!
     
  3. Terrific and so fast. I used 1-1/2 tsp of dough to get the 24 balls. I pressed them with a glass dipped in sugar than scored with a fork. So very tasty too.
     
  4. This was easy to follow and my wife and my little girl were pretty happy with the result as well. I will be making them again.
     
  5. Well this certainly is a quick and easy wee recipe. Who would have thought 3 ingredients could turn into such awesome cookies. Peanut butter, sugar and an egg: I've always got these ingredients on hand and I especially like that they are so quick to mix. A real keeper of a recipe. Made for PAC Fall 2012.

  1. I use dark brown sugar instead of white sugar and sometimes add a little coconut flour. If you add the c-flour, you may have to use two eggs.
