You know that we I love peanut butter, right? LOVE.
Peanut butter cookies are our my favorite. The only thing I don’t care for is the floury taste that sometimes accompanies even the very best peanut butter cookies.
Of course I’m going to share the recipe for these with you – because I am not one of those people who has secret recipes!
Five Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookie Recipe
Ingredient 1. 1 cup Peanut Butter
Ingredient 2. 1 cup sugar
Ingredient 3. 1 egg
Ingredient 4. 1 tsp baking soda
Ingredient 5 (optional). 1/4 cup Chocolate chips
Mix the peanut butter, sugar, and egg. Add baking soda. Fold in chocolate chips.
Use a spoon to scoop the dough and roll into 1 inch balls. The dough is flaky and might have to be squeezed together to make it stick into a ball – it’s ok – it’ll be worth it.
Use a fork to make crisscross marks in the cookie.
Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes.
Enjoy :)

I’m life long baker and in my 70’s I’ve never heard of baking cookies without flour and other ingredients, I thought people were putting one on,anyway I gave this cookie a try, what a surprise, they turned out delicious,this is going to be a keeper in my cookie collection. Please give them a try you won’t be disappointed.
Thank you for your comment, Carol!! I’m so glad you enjoyed them–I think the peanut butter flavor really comes through!
Just wondering if anyone has tried this recipe using a sugar substitute as I am looking to cut out carbs and the sugar adds a lot of them.
Are these a soft cookie? I’m going to make these but I’m going to use trivia instead of regular sugar. My husband and I are doing the trim health momma diet, and these are exactly the kind of desert that is allowed!
Nope, they’re more crunchy ;)
How did they turn out Dayna?
Some genuinely nice and utilitarian info on this web site, as
well I conceive the style has wonderful features.
Using just the measurements listed, how many cookies does this yield?
these are amazing! I was having a rough day and these totally helped turn it around <3
i made these with coconut sugar and they turned out great!
Ooh, that’s good to know! Did you substitute 1:1?
Can I substitute sugar with sweetener?
Ally, I’ve only used sugar – but another commenter used coconut sugar and said they turned out!
Just made these and they were great! I should have made smaller balls and flattened them more. But i added Reese pieces and white chocolate. YUM!
Could these simple fast cookies be made without peanut butter, lets say using coconut oil to hold them together..similar to sugar cookies? Any ideas? Thank you. (btw made two batches two days in a row using 1/2 cup almond butter and 1/2 peanut butter, they were delicious!)
That sounds delicious!
Do you know the nutrition for one cookie??
