Equipment

  • 1 medium sized mixing bowl
  • 1 rubber or silicone spatula
  • (1) 10x15 cookie sheet

Ingredients

  • 1 cup natural creamy peanut butter I like Smucker's brand
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine peanut butter and powdered sugar.
  • Mix to form a dough and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. You can also set the dough in the freezer if you want it to firm up faster.
  • Scoop the dough into 1-inch balls and set them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Gently flatten the dough balls with the palm of your hand or the bottom of a glass.
  • Use the tines of a fork to create a criss-cross pattern on top of the cookies. This gives these easy cookies the look of classic peanut butter cookies.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes. It's important to let the cookies cool to prevent them from falling apart. I recommend letting them cool to room temperature on the cookie sheets before eating.
