These 3-ingredient cookies are a quick and easy treat, perfect for when you’re craving something sweet without the fuss! Made with simple ingredients, these cookies are deliciously soft, chewy, and versatile. Customize with your favorite add-ins like chocolate chips or nuts for an even more indulgent experience.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup peanut butter (or almond butter)
  • 1 cup sugar (or sweetener of choice)
  • 1 egg

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, sugar, and egg. Stir until smooth.
  • Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  • Flatten each dough ball slightly with a fork or your hands.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For a more decadent treat, feel free to add chocolate chips, dried fruit, or chopped nuts to the dough.
  • These cookies may be soft right after baking but will firm up once cooled.
