Tasty Tuesday

This recipe is both simple and frugal. As Hannah Montana would say, it's the best of both worlds! In case you didn't know it by now. . . I am a dork. I own it. Love it or leave it.
My sister and I first learned how to make these cookies in G.A.'s, back in the day. I still use this recipe (with a modification or two) any time I need to make peanut butter cookies. And I'm using the word "need" loosely.

So Simple Peanut Butter Cookies

1 cup of peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
1 cup of sugar
1 egg

Blend together. I usually add a spoon or two of flour to help them hold together better. A pinch of salt, maybe some vanilla. This is why I don't bake, even THIS recipe is to constrictive for me.

Spoon, roll, use a cookie scoop, drop onto a cookie sheet, dip a fork in a shallow bowl of sugar and press into each dough ball, making a criss-cross pattern.

Bake at 350, approximately 8-10 minutes.
Sometimes I double the recipe, add another 1/3 cup of p.b. to the dough and a bag of chocolate chips, and press into my rectangular baking stone. This bakes for about 12-15 minutes, then let cool before slicing into cookie bars.

Sorry there are no pictures. To do that I would have to do some dishes and then actually bake these tonight. I'm baking them tomorrow. Use your imagination.
