3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies

January 14, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 42 Comments

Happy Monday Everyone!

Today is my first post of the year for the Secret Recipe Club and boy do I have a great recipe today!  It’s easy, fast, gluten free, so darn delicious and healthy!!

Peanut Butter Cookies

These are Heather’s Recipe from It’s Yummy to My Tummy’s Blog.  Heather’s blog is new to me and I had so much fun searching through all of her recipes.  I just couldn’t decide what one to make, but you know me and peanut butter, my heart and stomach was telling me to make them and make them now!  I am sure glad I did!  These cookies have the most rich peanut butter taste than any peanut butter cookie I have ever had.  They are pure peanut butter heaven!!

Peanut Butter Cookies


They are so easy to make to!!  Only 3 ingredients  peanut butter, egg and sugar!  Love it!  You can whip these bad boys together in a matter of minutes, no mixer needed, just a strong hand to mix with a spoon!  Actually I got my hands dirty and used them to bring this cookie together!  When I made these cookies to add a little texture, I also through in some chopped cashews for a little bit of a crunch!  Perfect!  I told my Husband he could have a few, key word a few, to take to work.  He took the whole batch!!  I came home from work, wanting to have one of these cookies and when I went to grab one or two, they were gone!  I called him ASAP and asked where are the cookies and he said I took them!  He took all of them!!!  ALL OF THEM!!!  Now you must know I never call my Husband at work, but it was a peanut butter emergency and he seemed shocked that I called.  I said do you have any left?  He said yah, I said good, bring them home and you know what he did?  He ate them!!  He didn’t bring any home for me at all!!  I was so sad!  Lucky I always keep spare PB around so I can make more!!  That darn Husband of mine!  Remember he doesn’t like peanut butter!  I think he just says that to mess with me!!!

    I never understood why people start adding flour and so many other ingredients to peanut butter cookies. This 3 ingredient recipe is the only way I have ever, and will ever make peanut butter cookies. It’s the only way to get the true peanut butter taste (so yummy).

    I hate it when I expect to find some left over of anything. Go to get it and it has disappeared. Since the nuts are optional I guess you can still call this a three ingredient recipe, cause I counted 4 tee-hee hee! They do look great.

Happy Monday! I’m sharing with you a rare view o Happy Monday! I’m sharing with you a rare view of my kitchen. What’s so rare about it! It’s clean. 🤣 
.
So this weekend our refrigerator broke. The freezer no longer works and the fridge is not getting cool enough. Ugh!! We bought our Whirlpool refrigerator about 4 years ago and spent near $3000 for it. It sure didn’t last long. 
.
After reading reviews on a million refrigerators, they all seem like crap. I need your help! Do you have a refrigerator that you recommend? 
.
I saw a Frigidaire one that we are debating on, but not sure? The reviews are good, but says, they were collected from a promotion. So I’m not sure how much I trust that? Anyway, any recommendations that you have would be great! 
.
Have a great day!

I have been decorating the house for Easter and Spring. I love how this little space turned out. I am loving the bright pastels. I added my new bunny/chick pillow that I got from @12timbers. It matches so perfectly and it’s so cute. I also couldn’t resist the chick pillow from Target.

Have the best day!

Hi Everyone! I hope you had a great weekend. I mus Hi Everyone! I hope you had a great weekend. I must say I was disappointed in the Super Bowl. I really wanted the 49ers to win. Anyway, this weekend I refreshed my guest bathroom.
🐰
I have to say my new favorite item is the towel holder. It’s so cute and practical. I don’t have a hand towel rack and I hated leaving my towels on my counter. I saw the towel holder from Target and had to get it. It’s the Hearth and Hand brand.
🐰
I added some bunnies for Spring and a touch of pink for some color. The hand towels are from Homegoods. They have so many bunnies and Easter decor. I had to control myself because I was with my husband. I may go back. 
🐰
Have a great day!!

Happy Monday!! I have to confess to you. I still h Happy Monday!! I have to confess to you. I still have Christmas in my kitchen.😳 I don’t know where to put it, so I haven’t taken it down. It’s not a lot, but just enough to where I can’t fit it. Ugh!  Please tell me I’m not the only one. 
💕
I did do one little spot for Valentines, which I think is so cute. I love decorating with Valentines candy. I can’t resist the pinks and the conversation hearts. I do not plan on going all out decorating this season, as time is going so fast, but I may add some hearts here and there. 
💕
Do you decorate for Valentine’s Day?

Hi Everyone! With spring around the corner, now is Hi Everyone! With spring around the corner, now is the time to get your chores done, so when the warmer weather arrives you can enjoy it. My goal is to refresh my bedroom. I am slowly getting rid of stuff that I no longer need and slowly adding new decor. So hopefully in a few weeks it will be done. #twopageshome
♥️
The first thing I added are these stunning customized curtains that I was gifted from @twopagescurtains. Guys, I’m in love! The curtains are just so pretty! I am loving the way it shades the sun, but still lets the light in. Exactly the look I was going for.
♥️
The curtains I chose are the “Liz Linen Drape Soft”. They are a linen curtain that is environmentally friendly, hypoallergenic, long lasting, dust preventative, and breathable. They are also wrinkle free. I didn’t have to steam them. They came right out of the package ready to hang. They also come in 38 colors and 7 shadings to choose from. There is an option for everyone.
♥️
I’ll be honest I was intimidated on ordering custom curtains. I was so afraid I would order them wrong, but I didn’t. Two Pages has a measurement finder that asks you a few easy questions and boom you have your custom curtain size. It was so simple.
♥️
If you are looking for some new curtains or shades for your home, I highly recommend Two Page Curtains. I absolutely love them. They were kind enough to give my followers an 8% discount code: PBANDP. Link in bio
♥️
Are you planning on refreshing any spaces?

Happy Friday! Hope you had a wonderful holiday sea Happy Friday! Hope you had a wonderful holiday season. I am slowly working on taking my Christmas decor down. I still have my tree up, but I love the twinkling lights, and the real reason is I need my husband to get the box out of the garage. lol 
💙
I am going with blues in the living room. I just find blue calming and peaceful. The first area I styled is the coffee table. Sorry about the views. I have a small, thin living room.
💙
I decided to go light on the decor and add some fresh faux greenery. I hate leaving the remote controls out, so I decided to store them in a decorative box. Everything here, but the white box was bought at Target. 
💙
Have a wonderful weekend!

Hi Everyone! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. I Hi Everyone! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. It was low key for us, as it was just my husband and I. We had dinner at my daughters house on Christmas Eve. That was nice. 
🎄
I am sharing my last view of my living room before I take down my Christmas decor. I will leave some of the winter type greens, but I think I’m going to add some blues. I have always liked blue after the holidays. It just gives the room a light and clean look.
🎄
I want to say sorry for lack of posting. It’s just so time consuming engaging. I hate spending countless hours on my phone. It has made me physically lazy and it hurts my eyes. I have put on so much weight because all I do is sit. I really need to change this habit. Anyway! I hope you have a wonderful day!!!
