Ingredients
1/2 cup (128 g) creamy peanut butter
4 tbsp (24 g) powdered sugar (can add 1-2 more tbsp for sweeter cookies)

Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl add peanut butter and sugar. Stir until sugar is completely incorporated into the
peanut butter. You can taste the dough and if you don't think it is sweet enough, you can add 1-2
tbsp more sugar.
3. Use a 1.5 tbsp cookie scoop and scoop up cookie dough. Release it onto prepared baking sheet.
Repeat with rest of the dough. Use your fingers to gently smooth the surface of each dough ball.
4. Bake cookies for 13-15 minutes or until edges turn a darker shade of brown and surface of the
cookies are dry and slightly cracked. Let cookies cool completely on cookie sheet before
removing them with a cookie spatula.

Notes
This is a small batch recipe. The cookies are quite rich in peanut butter flavor, so it's hard to eat
more than one at a time. If you want more cookies, you can double the recipe.
These cookies are very soft. Because there is no egg acting as a binding agent, the cookies will
crumble more easily.

I used natural peanut butter but it can be made with regular peanut butter. This recipe works best
with powdered sugar. You can make your own powdered sugar by blending white sugar in food
processor or blender until it becomes powder consistency. See post for why powdered sugar is
used in this recipe instead of regular granular sugar.
Storage tips are discussed in the post.
