OLD FASHIONED 3 INGREDIENT PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES

• Notes
• If you choose to add an extra egg, simply scoop the finished cookie dough onto the baking tray. It will not be firm enough to roll into balls or press with a criss-cross pattern. The cookies will be puffier straight out of the oven and then will settle a bit as they cool.
