1 cup peanut butter (either smooth or crunchy, your choice)
2 beaten eggs (just whip them up with a fork)
2-1/2 cups flour (no need to sift)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees, rack in middle position.
Microwave the butter in a microwave-safe mixing bowl to
melt it. Add the sugar, vanilla, and molasses. Stir until it's
blended, then add the baking soda, baking powder, and
salt. Mix well.
TIP- If you like a sweeter cookie, add 1/2 cup more of
sugar or roll the dough balls in sugar before baking.
Measure out the peanut butter (I spray the inside of my
measuring cup with Pam so that it won't stick.) Add it to the
bowl and mix it in. Our in the beaten eggs and stir. Then
add the flour, and mix until all the ingredients are
thoroughly blended.
Form the dough into walnut-sized balls and arrange
them on a greased cookie sheet, 12 to a standard sheet.
(If the dough is too sticky to form into balls, chill it for a
few minutes and try again).
Flatten the balls with a fork in a crisscross pattern (if the
fork sticks, either spray it with Pam or dip it in flour.)
Bake at 375 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the
edges are just beginning to turn golden. Cool on the
cookie sheet for 2 minutes, then remove to a wire rack to
finish cooling.
