3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies {Gluten Free}

By srumbel

I have an incredibly easy recipe for old fashioned chewy peanut butter cookies.

This recipe requires only 3 ingredients, and I bet you already have them on hand. As an added bonus, these cookies are gluten free!!

Ingredients

• 1 cup peanut butter
• 1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
• 1 egg

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350

Cookies
Step 2
In a medium bowl, beat together all ingredients until well combined. Roll dough into 1 1/2" balls and set on an ungreased cookie sheet 2" apart. Using the back of a fork, press down to gently flatten the cookie slightly, leaving imprints from the prongs going down the middle. Repeat, this time at a perpendicular angle to the last imprint.
Bake for 8 minutes and allow to cool for 5 minutes on the cookie sheet before transferring to racks.

Topping - Optional
Step 3
If desired, melt 4 oz chocolate and dip half of each cookie. Immediately top with M&M's or sprinkles and place on wax paper until chocolate is set.
Store in a sealed container at room temperature,
