Peanut Butter Cookies

These are gluten free peanut butter cookies and they have officially become one of my favorite peanut butter cookies. They are soft with a nice sweet crunch from the coating of sugar. If one has to give up flour in a cookie, this is a good way to do it.

1 cup natural peanut butter

1 cup sugar

1 egg, room temperature

1 tsp. vanilla extract

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. In a medium bowl, mix peanut butter and sugar. Break egg into a small dish and beat lightly. Add to peanut butter mixture and mix well. Add vanilla extract and mix until thoroughly combined.

3. Roll a teaspoonful of mixture into a ball, roll in granulated sugar and place on making stone. The cookies will spread so allow room for that. Using a fork, form criss-cross designs on cookies.

4. Bake for 12 minutes.

5. Allow the cookies to cool on the stone for at least 8 minutes. Remove to wire rack and allow to cool completely before storing in airtight tin.

Makes 24 cookies.
