One of my favorites is the flourless peanut butter cookie, very simple and
good.

I cup peanut butter

1 cup sugar

1 tsp vanilla

1 large egg

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and place the racks in the upper and lower
third of the oven.

In a medium bowl, mix the peanut butter, sugar, vanilla and egg until well
combined and mixture becomes rather stiff. Spoon 1 tablespoon of the mixture
about 1 inch apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Flatten the mounds with the
tines of a fork, making a crosshatch pattern on the cookies.

Bake until golden around the edges, about 10 minutes, switching the
position of the sheets halfway through baking. Transfer to racks to cool.
Repeat with the remaining dough.
