4 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies


Sometimes we get invited over to someone's house on really short notice. (Or we forget about ward parties and we signed up to bring something...) Since we try not to go to a dinner or party empty-handed, we have a few things that we can whip up really fast. This recipe is one of them--especially since there are only four ingredients and we usually have all of them on hand.

Here's what you need:

1 cup peanut butter (we like the chunky kind)
1 egg
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla

Mix all the ingredients, form into balls on a cookie sheet, criss-cross the tops with a fork and pop them into the oven. We cook them for about 10 minutes at 350 degrees. This recipe makes 18-ish cookies, depending on the size you make the balls of dough. I love it--it is just so simple! We also get compliments when we bring the cookies over when they're still warm. Probably because peanut butter is just so delicious.
