    These cookies are a lifesaver. My husband was buying them at a very high price and these quick simple ingredients make a very good cookie. They are so fast to make and taste great! Thanks Amy Delicious and money saving.

      Aww thank you! Very simple easy recipe but when you’re craving cookies I always have everything to make these! Gluten-free too!

  2. this recipe looks like some ingredients are missing. only pb, sugar and egg? doesn’t seem like this would hold together as a cookie. where’s the flour?

    1. Amy Hanten says:

      Works great just as is! Try it! I’ve been making these cookies for years!

  3. debbie watson says:

    These are wonderful! And great on Christmas day when you want homemade cookies and the stores are closed . Merry Christmas and thanks for making my sweet tooth happy .

  4. they are awesome just made them last night and they are almost gone and so easy to make

    1. Thanks Tom! I’m so glad you liked them! -Amy

    Regular sugar or powdered sugar

  6. Mary Kay Dolan says:

    Amy if I want more cookies, can I double or triple the amount of ingredients? Thanks Mary Kay

  7. This recipe is the best.

  8. Used Splenda and they didn’t turn out at all.. Threw them away 🙁

    1. Amy Hanten says:

      Hi Terri. Yes, you have to use sugar. Splenda won’t work. Sorry about that! They are really good and so easy!

  9. I’m not sure what I did wrong…I feel as though this recipe is fool proof…but mine just aren’t looking like cookies. More like blobs of cooked pb. ):

    1. Hi Sky. I’m not sure what went wrong either. I make these all the time and they turn out great! Sorry! Thanks! -Amy

  10. Yes Rebecca, you can sprinkle a little sugar on top. But, definately do it before baking. Hope you love them. Thanks! -Amy

  11. If you want to dust these with regular sugar, do you do it before or after you bake them? I remember my mom’s pb cookies always had sugar on top, but don’t know if she did it before or after. Thanks!

    These cookies are awsome.I made term and I’m 12 so they were good.I added some extra non salted penuts……they worked ready good…..alltho…I had to cook them for 20 minutes

  13. just to let everyone know – it does not work well with natural peanut butter – just like in the jar, the oils do not blend well. The bottom of the pan fills with oil. Oh well, I am going to take them to the event anyways. Now I know.

  14. I MADE THESE FOR MY DAUGHTER AND HER HUSBAND AND KIDS THEY LVOED THEM. AND MY HUSBAND SAID THE BEST HE EVER HAD AND YOU CAN ACTUALLY TASTE THE PEANUT BUTTER. THEN I WNET TO RACINE AND MADE FOR MY TWIN SISTER AND HER HUSBAND THEY LOVED THEM. THANKS FOR SHARING THE RECIPE

  15. do u think i can use splenda as a sugar substitute

  16. Chrissy Shields says:

    These are gluten free and taste awesome!!

  17. My very good friend use to make these when I asked her for the recipe the measurements changed every time mine never quite turned out. Now I know the correct measurements…Can chocolate chips be added just wondering….Do you use crunchy or smooth..

    1. I don’t know about the chocolate chips. Try it and let me know! I use smooth peanut butter but I am sure crunchy would work too. Thanks! -Amy

  18. Can’t wait to try these….No flour, huh???? My kinda recipe

      1. AMY I MADED THESE FOR MY DAUGHTER AND KIDS AND JUSGFAND AND MY HUSBAND THEY LOVED THE, THEY SAID THE BEST PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES THEY EVER HAD. AND YOU ACTUALLY CAN TASTE THE PEANUT BUTTER OH SO GOOD! THANKS FOR THE RECIPE
