Ingredients

  • 250 g Smooth peanut butter See notes
  • 200 g Caster sugar
  • 1 Egg

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180℃ fan (200℃ conventional oven / gas mark 6).
  • Mix all of the ingredients together until smooth.
  • Roll into balls on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
  • Press the top of each ball with a fork.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes until just starting to turn golden.
  • Wait until cooled on the baking tray and enjoy!

Notes

Type of peanut butter: Any kind of smooth peanut butter is best. You can use crunchy if you like. It will just have more texture and produce slightly harder biscuits
Rolling the dough balls: Try not to handle the dough too much or it can become very oily
Baking: Be careful not to over bake the cookies! Bring them out of the oven when they are just golden and cooked
