Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies
ByEven if you can tolerate gluten, it’s great to have a recipe for a sweet treat for friends and family who can’t. This recipe is YUMMY and so super easy!
My seven year old chef made these yesterday! His thirty something year old mommy ate three one tiny nibble to make sure they were good. (and they were)
Only four ingredients!
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup peanut butter
1 egg
chocolate chips or chocolate stars…depending on how you want to make them
Just mix the brown sugar, peanut butter and egg together.
For bar cookies, stir in about 1/2 cup chocolate chips, spread mixture into a 9×9 pan and bake for 20 minutes at 350 degrees.
For cutesy cookies, place a small scoop into a mini muffin paper (using a mini muffin pan), put a chocolate star in the middle of each and bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes.
And that’s it! Easy and yummy…that works for me!
These were one of the first baked goods that I made when my family went gluten free. Yummy!!!

How thin were your cookies? Mine turned into a crumble but I might have made them to thick. At least the crumble tastes good.

Oh, I’m sorry yours didn’t turn out so nicely! Mine were on the thick side I guess. If you mix these up again and they seem to be crumbly, add another egg and see if that helps.

Hi Laura,
I made the peanut butter bars with chocolate chips today for my son and he loved them. He gave me a big hug and told me how much he loves me and loves the peanut butter bars. It was totally sweet. As my son would say, “Laura, you rock.” Thank you for the recipe.
