Recipe Challenge- Peanut Butter Cookies

Honestly I love peanut butter cookies yet hardly eat them or make them. Did you know you can make peanut butter cookies without the flour. Yep, just pb, egg and sugar. They are good and you can't tell there isn't any flour in them. This is good if you have a gluten allergy.

Anyway, I'm going to share with you the recipe that my mom gave to me in my cookbook she made for me. You can check out my previous post regarding my recipe challenge for the year. I was bored and wanted to make something this morning. I've been getting over a cold and living on soup. I made sure my hands were thoroughly washed, had hand sanitizer and walked out the room every time I needed to cough...which slowed down my baking. I'm giving them away. I don't need them around the house.
