Craving a sweet treat without the hassle of a long ingredient list? Look no further! These easy 3-ingredient flourless chocolate cookies are perfect for satisfying your chocolate cravings with minimal effort. They’re not only delicious but also gluten-free, making them a great option for those with dietary restrictions. Here’s how you can whip up these delightful cookies in no time.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of creamy peanut butter (you can use almond butter or any other nut butter if you prefer)
- 1 cup of sugar (white or brown sugar works fine)
- 1 large egg
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Mix the ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the peanut butter, sugar, and egg. Stir until the mixture is smooth and everything is well incorporated.
- Shape the cookies: Using a spoon or your hands, form the dough into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter). Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. If you like, you can gently press down on each ball with a fork to create a crisscross pattern on top.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are set around the edges. They might still look a bit soft in the center, but they’ll firm up as they cool.
- Cool and enjoy: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Tips:
- For an extra chocolatey twist, consider adding a handful of chocolate chips to the dough before baking.
- These cookies store well in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, but they’re so delicious they probably won’t last that long!
These flourless chocolate cookies are a breeze to make and perfect for any occasion. Share them with family and friends or keep a stash for yourself whenever you need a quick chocolate fix. Enjoy!
