Answer 1

This isn't any fancy shmancy recipe for cookies, although, they taste unbelievable good. They will never harden, they'll always remain soft and fluffy on the inside. They've been in my family for years and just look at the ingredients.


INGREDIENTS
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup white sugar
1 egg
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
Combine ingredients and drop by teaspoonfuls on cookie sheet. Bake for 8 minutes. Let cool. Recipe doesn't make very many, so you could double recipe as you desire.
