Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup peanut butter creamy or crunchy, standard commercial spread
  • 1 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 large egg room temperature

Instructions
 

Cooking

  • Mix. Stir the peanut butter, brown sugar, and egg until smooth, then chill for 10 minutes.
  • Scoop. Heat the oven to 350 degrees F, line two trays, and place tablespoon scoops 2 inches apart.
  • Press. Press each scoop with a fork dipped in warm water to make a crisscross.
  • Bake. Bake for about 10 minutes, swapping the trays halfway, until the surface is light golden and the edges are golden.
  • Cool. Leave on the trays until firm enough to move.

Notes

Substitutions: Use almond butter or cashew butter in the same amount.
Tips: Avoid natural peanut butter that separates. Do not eat raw dough because it contains egg.
Storage: Keep airtight at room temperature for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Contains peanuts.
