un, deux, trois

"Simple" is an important part of a newlywed girl's vocabulary. Especially when it comes to kitchen antics. And this cookie recipe certainly falls under the description "easy." It requires only three ingredients, ones which I always have on hand.

Here's what you need:
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg

Here's what you do:

• Mix your ingredients together in a medium-sized mixing bowl. 
• Scoop out small amounts of the cookie mix and roll into little dough balls. 
• Arrange on an un-greased cookie sheet. 
• Using a fork, mash slightly and create the little cross-hatch design.
• Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes.
• Remove from oven and allow to cool on a wire rack for about 10 minutes before eating. 

As simple as these cookies are to make, they taste amazing straight out of the oven paired with a glass of milk. We're not big sweet eaters around here, but I love to tinker in the kitchen and bake. So, most of these little yummies went to our neighbors. Which illustrates a good point. As quick and easy as these cookies are to bake, they would make great last-minute hostess or holiday gifts! 

So there you have it. As easy as one, two, three!
