Easy Peanut Butter Cookies -- just 4 ingredients!

January 30th, 2005 at 10:01 pm

By request, I'm posting this easy, little-fuss cookie recipe:

Peanut Butter Cookies

1/2 cup honey (I subbed the leftover syrup I happen to have on hand from candied citrus peel production....)
1/2 cup peanut butter (smooth or cruncy)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup wheat flour (whole grain, or white, or mixed)

1. Preheat oven to 350. Grease cookie sheet and set aside.

2. Cream honey, peanut butter and vanilla extract together until thoroughly combined. Stir in flour to form a stiff dough. Mix thoroughly.

3. Form the dough into walnut-sized balls, and place them on cookie sheet.

4. Flatten cookies with the tines of a fork, making a cross-hatch design on top.

5. Bake for 11 or 12 minutes, until bottoms are lightly browned (do not let burn).

6. Allow cookies to rest for one full minute before transfering to cooling rack using a spatula. Cool cookies completely before storing.

Yields 2 dozen.

(Note: If using unsalted peanut butter, add a pinch or two of salt to recipe. Also, I've never tried this using corn syrup, but that would probably work, and be cheaper.....)
