The Best Peanut Butter Cookies

Happy Friday my friends! Today I wanted to share with you a cookie recipe that will blow your mind! Why? Because they’re made with absolutely NO flour. Yes, you read that correctly. But I promise you, one bite into these Peanut Butter cookies and you’ll totally understand the title of this post!

My husband has been a huge fan of peanut butter cookies for years. Me…not so much. But I have to confess….I have already eaten so many of these peanut butter cookies that I lost count. OMG! I can’t stop!

I’m willing to bet you a whole jar of peanut butter all the ingredients for these cookies is in your kitchen right now. Another reason why I love these cookies. 🙂  Next time when my hubby begs me to make a “quick” baked treat for him, this recipe will be my pick!

These cookies are also a great recipe for kids to try cooking in the kitchen. Since they’re so easy to make,  they can almost whip up a batch by themselves! (Just a little help with the oven, of course.) My sons favorite part is using the fork to make the criss-cross pattern. No great peanut butter cookie is complete without that trademark! 😉

 

I hope you give these sweet cookies a try and let me know if my title is accurate! If you get addicted, you can’t say I didn’t warn you! 😉
