This has got to be the easiest recipe yet for this wonderful cookie. I call them 1-2-3 1-1-1 Peanut Butter Cookies...1-2-3 because they're so fast and easy, 1-1-1 because of the ease in remembering the recipe ingredients. Don't be put off by the simplicity of it...and despite challenges to the contrary, the recipe works WITHOUT flour.

1-2-3 1-1-1 Peanut Butter Cookies

• 1 cup sugar (you can cut this down to 3/4 cup, if you prefer)
• 1 large egg
• 1 cup peanut butter (crunchy or smooth)

1. Combine sugar and egg in mixing bowl, stirring till smooth. Add peanut butter and mix in thoroughly.
2. Roll into walnut-sized balls.
3. Place the balls on ungreased cookie sheets at least 2" apart.
4. Flatten with the tines of a fork.
5. Turn 90 degrees and use fork again to create cross hatches.
6. Bake 10 minutes at 375F (or till done). Let cool in pan for 1 minute before removing to cooling rack.
