Easy 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies

When I was a little girl, we didn’t have much money. We certainly didn’t have money for extras like cookies, but children like cookies. I was no exception. Thankfully, we go WIC. WIC, for those that may not know, stands for Women, Infants, and Children. WIC gives food to poor women who have infants and young children. One of the food items every month was a very large can of peanut butter. My mom came up with a recipe for peanut butter cookies. It was so easy. It only needed 3 ingredients. I loved those cookies. I still use the recipe with my children today. My daughter really likes them because of how simple it is. 

Ingredients:

  • 1 Cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 egg

Directions:

  1. Mix all ingredients together.
  2. Roll into small balls and place onto an ungreased cookie sheet
  3. Press down with a fork
  4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
  5. Bake for about 7 minutes
  6. Let cool before removing from cookie sheet
