Prep Time: 10 min Cook Time: 12 min Servings: 8 (2 cookies each) Source:

Ingredients

1 cup all-natural smooth peanut butter

1 cup sugar substitute

1 large egg, slightly beaten

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350° and line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
2. Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl, mixing well to create the cookie dough.
3. Use a tablespoon to drop the spoonfuls of the dough 2 inches apart on the lined pan. Then use a fork to press the dough down, creating a criss-cross pattern on each cookie.
4. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until cookies begin to brown. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

The criss-cross pattern on the top of peanut butter cookies is there for people with peanut allergies to easily identify that it is a peanut butter cookie. That is a fact that I have not checked, but even if it isn’t true, it makes sense to me.

Use slightly less sweetener and break it up more.
