a quickie for peanut buttter junkies

For over twenty years I have been making an amazing peanut butter cookie that only involves three ingredients and one of them is not flour.  This recipe is for those of us that love peanut butter cookies alot.  It's absolutely the easiest cookie recipe you could throw together short of using frozen cookie dough.  It's a great recipe because the ingredients are standard staples in most of our kitchens.  Aaron and I can be sitting watching a movie, and I can jump up to mix up the cookie batter and have fresh peanut butter cookies within minutes.  I had an entree earlier this month for a very healthy cookie...I can't say that about today's recipe, but it surely will appeal to us peanut butter junkies when we need a good fix.

Quick 3 Ingredient Peanut Butter  Cookies

1 cup chunky or smooth peanut butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg

Mix the ingredients just till mixed
Drop from a teaspoon onto a baking sheet
Flatten each mound slightly with your fingers
Bake in an oven heated to 375 degrees for 9-11 minutes
ENJOY!

I have modified this recipe several ways such as:
adding chocolate chips, chopped peanuts, cinnamon, red chili powder
