Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies (Flourless)

I made those cookies for a co-worker’s birthday. The co-worker was a chocoholic...and also liked peanut butter. We had a very busy week at work, so I was pretty exhausted.

I decided on this modified recipe, because it only takes 20 minutes from start to finish, and I usually had all the ingredients on hand.

CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES (FLOURLESS)
  • 1 cup peanut butter (preferably extra chunky)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla (optional)
  • 2-3 tbsp cocoa powder

Preheat oven to 350oF. Mix all ingredients. Roll into one inch balls and flatten. (Optional: sprinkle sugar or crushed nuts on top). Bake 10 minutes. Let cool for a couple minutes before taking them off the baking sheet (they break easily when hot).

That’s all there is to it.
