Ingredients

  • 1 c peanut butter (doesn't matter if creamy or crunchy)
  • 1 c granulated sugar
  • 1 whole egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 cup sugar (set aside)

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325`

Step 2

Mix ingredients together and form small balls with dough. Place on cookie sheet about 2" apart.

Step 3

Take a fork and dip into reserved sugar. Use the fork to gently press the ball down and leave indentation on top. Turn fork at 45 degree angle and repeat, leaving a checkerboard pattern on top. Repeat for all the cookies.

Step 4

Bake at 325` for 30 minutes. Cookies will be soft and they need to be handled gently.

If you want a chocolate center like a thumbprint, do not use sugar and fork just push them down gently with hand. Once out of oven add a Hershey's kiss in the center once they have cooled slightly.
