Easy as 1-2-3!

The other day while browsing on Pinterest, I came across a recipe that took my back to my childhood- peanut butter cookies... yummy! I remember my mom used to make these specific cookies when I was little. They were a good go to when we didn't have a whole lot of baking ingredients oh hand but we wanted something sweet and homemade ;) I even remember making them a few times. So, when I saw them pinned on pinterest, I knew I had to make them again! Z loves some peanut butter... so I was pretty sure he would not object ;)
Here is the recipe... 

1 cup of creamy peanut butter
1 cup of sugar
1 egg
{I mean seriously... it does not get any easier than that! Easy as 1, 2, 3!}
You just preheat the oven to 350 and mix the ingredients together until combined. I used a tablespoon to scoop out dough and rolled the scoops into a ball. Then I rolled the cookie dough in sugar and placed on a baking sheet. I used a fork to flatten the dough and make a cute little zig-zag pattern! Then you just bake them for about 10 minutes.


I love this recipe because I almost always have those three ingredients on hand! Plus, they were a big hit with Z ;) Best served with a big glass of milk!! Enjoy!
