What You’ll Need for 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies
- Peanut Butter: One cup of your favorite creamy or chunky peanut butter.
- Sugar: One cup of white sugar to sweeten the dough.
- Egg: One egg to add moisture and bind everything together
🌟 Ingredient Success Tips
- Less Flour: You might notice there’s only a small amount of flour. That’s because peanut butter acts as a binder, so adding too much flour can dry out the cookies. Stick to the recipe for the best results.
- More Peanut Butter: This recipe uses more peanut butter than others. The extra peanut butter boosts the flavor and keeps the cookies rich and soft.
- Creamy, Not Crunchy: Use creamy peanut butter for a softer, more intact cookie. Crunchy peanut butter can make the cookies crumbly and dry.
- Brown and White Sugar Combo: Like chocolate chip cookies, this recipe uses more brown sugar than white. The brown sugar makes the cookies softer and moister, while the white sugar helps them spread. Use both for the perfect balance.
