By Lesia

Alright, a 10-minute, melt-in-your-mouth cookie recipe? That sounds perfect for a quick treat! Here’s a super-fast and easy recipe for “3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies,” which are known for their soft, melt-in-your-mouth texture:

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup peanut butter (smooth or chunky)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg

Instructions:

  1. Preheat and Prep:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).  
    • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Combine Ingredients:
    • In a medium bowl, combine the peanut butter, sugar, and egg.  
    • Mix well until a smooth dough forms.
  3. Shape the Cookies:
    • Roll the dough into 1-inch balls.
    • Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
    • Use a fork to press down on each cookie, creating a crisscross pattern.
  4. Bake:
    • Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
    • They will still be very soft, and that is what makes them melt in your mouth.
  5. Cool:
    • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Why They’re So Fast and Melt-in-Your-Mouth:  

  • Minimal Ingredients: Only three ingredients mean minimal prep and cleanup.
  • Short Baking Time: They bake quickly, so you get your cookie fix fast.
  • Peanut Butter’s Texture: Peanut butter creates a soft, almost crumbly texture that melts in your mouth.

Variations:

  • Add chocolate chips to the dough.
  • Sprinkle with sea salt before baking.
  • Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  • Dip the cooled cookies in melted chocolate.

Enjoy your quick and delicious melt-in-your-mouth cookies!
