Secret Recipe Club.

Happy Monday y'all!

You know what time it is. Duh. Secret Recipe Club time. Once again, my life got a little bit crazy and then I realized this past weekend...oh, yea, I have a SRC post on Monday. Whoops! Luckily, I was given one amazing blog, It's Yummy to My Tummy, where Heather Kluesner shares delicious recipes that help her "de-stress her life." Heather, I know exactly what you mean. Cooking and baking is definitely therapeutic for me as well. Now, while I am not a mom like Heather, I can definitely vouch for all of us by saying that quick and delicious recipes are gold. Soooooo ironically, when I was running out of time to bake or cook anything this weekend, Heather had my back. Enter Heather's 3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies.  I mean seriously. This was a no brainer. #1. Peanut Butter. Duh. #2. 3-ingredients. Duh x's 2! #3. Did I mention Peanut Butter?

Yea.

Peanut Butter.
I was totally sold at Peanut Butter. Duh. 

The chocolate chips are an added bonus for sure.

I love my cookies with coffee. It's nice to switch things up.

Yes, I drink my coffee with a straw.


3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies (GF):

Ingredients:
1 c. peanut butter (chunky or creamy) (I used Peanut Butter Crave Choco Choco Peanut Butter)
1 egg
1 c. white sugar (I used coconut sugar)
*Add-ins: chocolate chips or candy pieces (I added a couple of dark chocolate chips on top of each cookie)

Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. 
2. Combine all of the ingredients together in a large mixing bowl until smooth. 
3. Use a cookie scoop to drop the dough by rounded teaspoons on to the prepared baking sheet. 
4. You can choose to flatten the cookie with the tines of a fork, or top the cookie with 2-3 chocolate chips each. 
5. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until slightly golden around the edges.

Makes 12-20 cookies.

MANGIA!!!

  8. OH my gosh, I did the same thing and almost ran out of time to make my recipe before reveal day! The sun was setting when I snapped my pictures--I took them just in the nick of time. Life is crazy without kids, I don't know how moms do it. Anyway, your cookies are stunning, love that you used choco pb and added in chocolate chips. the only thing better than pb is pb with chocolate!
