(Adapted from Mary Younkin’s recipe on Barefeet In The Kitchen)

Makes 16 – 18)

1 cup sugar (I used maple sugar.)

1 cup peanut butter

1 egg

1. Preheat the oven to 350˚ and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat mat.

2. If using maple sugar, sift it through a fine mesh strainer to break up any lumps.

3. Stir the sugar, peanut butter, and egg together until the mixture is well-blended.

4. Scoop the dough with a cookie scoop (I used a 2 tablespoon one which made large cookies) or roll the dough into 1-inch balls.

5. Place the dough on the prepared baking sheet. Press the dough down with the tines of a fork in a criss-cross pattern.

6. Bake for 12 minutes. Let them cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes and then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
