I am all about simple recipes in the summer. I want to be in and out of the kitchen as quickly as I can so I can spend time outside. So, I have several 3-ingredient recipes I enjoy making.
Have you tried my 3-Ingredient Brownies yet? They come together in just 5 minutes. And the taste is spectacular.

Or, this 3-Ingredient Chocolate Peanut Butter Ice Cream is the perfect amount of peanut butter flavor, and speckled chocolate pieces.

Want something even easier? Try my 2-Ingredient Creamy Vanilla Rice Pudding recipe. This recipe is so simple it just about cooks itself!

3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies

This easy peanut butter cookie recipe uses just 3 simple ingredients. It takes minutes to put together and the cookies are absolutely delicious.

If you have children that enjoy helping in the kitchen, this is a perfect recipe for them to start with. It's literally foolproof.

Tips for making 3-ingredient peanut butter cookies

  • Natural peanut butter is great in this cookie. It is thicker resulting in a thicker batter. That said, I actually use Skippy most often.
  • You can make these with a spoon instead of an electric mixer.
  • Make them even more fun by stuffing them with a mini Reese's peanut butter cup. 
  • To make peanut blossoms, top them with a Hershey's Kiss right when they come out of the oven.
  • Don't use crunchy peanut butter. The cookie will be too crumbly and won't turn out properly. You need creamy peanut butter.
  • Don't over bake the cookies. They will continue to harden as they cool on your cookie sheet.

What you will need to make this 3-ingredient recipe

  • Parchment paper or Silpat mat - I use these mats for everything. They are great for flash freezing, rolling out the dough, and naturally for baking.
  • 1 tablespoon scoop - One of my favorite kitchen tools, I have had mine for over 10 years. I use it for 2 bite cookies, cocktail meatballs, freezing tomato paste, and so much more!

Frequently asked questions

Why do peanut butter cookies have fork marks?
Peanut butter cookies are often very dense. So, if you don't press down on the cookie, it won't cook as evenly. Using a fork to press the cookie is easy and leaves a fun design on top.

But, you could press with a spatula or the bottom of a glass as well.

Can you freeze peanut butter cookies?
Yes, it's very easy to freeze these 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies. Simply layer them in an airtight container.

It's very important that you separate each layer of cookies with wax or parchment paper so that they don't stick together.

They will stay good in the freezer for about 3 months.

Then, when you want to eat them, just let them defrost at room temperature for a few minutes.

Can I use a different type of sugar?
Yes, if you prefer not to bake with white sugar, you can use brown sugar in the same measurements to make 3-ingredient peanut butter cookies with brown sugar.

Or, use a one-to-one sweetener replacement. Just check the package for the appropriate amounts. It will vary with each sweetener.

What's the best way to store peanut butter cookies?

You can store these cookies at room temperature in an airtight container. You can keep them on the counter for up to 5 days. To keep them soft, add a slice of white bread to the container.

This is an old trick that will help the cookies stay chewy.

3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookie variations

For 4-ingredient peanut butter cookies, you can add chocolate chips or a teaspoon of vanilla. 

To make 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies vegan, substitute one flax egg for the egg.

Just mix 1 tablespoon of flaxseed with 2 tablespoons of water and let it sit for 5 minutes.

Experiment with different types of nut butters like almond butter or cashew butter.

Enjoy!
