Peanut Butter Munchies

Matt got a little box set for Lola a while back that contained Laura Numeroff and Felicia Bond's If You Give a Moose a Muffin, If You Give a Cat a Cupcake, If You Take a Mouse to School, and a couple of activity books. The books are really cute and they're some of Lola's favorites. I haven't really paid much attention to the activity books though because Lola is a little too young for them still. But, tonight I decided to try the recipe for Pop's Peanut Butter Munchies. They were so good!

When I first looked at the recipe I thought, "uhhh something is missing here! Where is the flour?" But they actually turned out perfect! They are super sweet though. Just one is more than plenty to cure your sweet tooth!

Here is the recipe, exactly as it appears in the book:
Pop's Peanut Butter Munchies
1 cup peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
1 cup sugar
1 egg

• Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Mix well.
• Using your hands, roll the dough into one-inch balls and drop onto a lightly greased cookie sheet.
• Bake at 350° F for 10 - 12 minutes until golden brown. Press the tines of a fork into each cookie while still soft.

Some of my own notes: I used parchment paper which works a lot better than greasing the cookie sheet. Also, the cookies stay together better if you allow them to cool for about 2 minutes before you transfer them to a cooling rack.
