A peanut butter cookies that uses minimal ingredients, is ready in 15 minutes and comes out perfectly every time! 4 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookie Recipe

4 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookie Recipe

Perfect Every Time

So, there have been a ton of 3 ingredient peanut butter cookie recipes going around, which I have tried and really like.  But, because I have this need to be different and re-create recipes,  I decided to make a 4 ingredient cookie.  Even though it adds another ingredient they are just as quick and easy to make. Now, actually you may consider these 5 ingredient, with the addition of chocolate.  But, since it is optional (chocolate is never optional here, but some folks may want to leave it out)  I do not count it as an ingredient.

Trust me when I say these are SO EASY. Craving a gooey, decadent goodie at 8pm?  Get up and make these cookies, in 15 minutes you will be in enjoying them.
