I am not normally a massive peanut butter fan but there is something about peanut butter after it is baked that gives it a really nice balanced flavour that doesn't leave a film of oil in your mouth. These cookies are so simple and work a treat when your pantry is running a little low or you have a friend pop over unexpected. Because there is only four ingredients (can be three by simply removing the flour from the recipe) and there is no requirement to cream butter and sugar you will be able to whip these up in no time (my boyfriend even likes making these ones).
If you prefer a richer cookie simply sbstiture the caster sugar for brown sugar which will add an extra depth of flavour. I also like using crunchy peanut butter for these cookies but I have also tried them with smooth and it works just as well. Give these cookies a go as you may find a new appreciation for that jar of peanut butter in your cupboard. I know that I did. Enjoy.
