When my mother (who's now a great-grandmother) gave me this recipe about 15 years ago, I was skeptical, because it calls for only three ingredients and no flour. But since then I've never had a failure, and I make them all the time!

I use this resipe always in a pinch. So easy and fast. Can't believe how I used to make them with tons of ingredients.

I was looking for a gluten-free cookie recipe to make for a friend. This worked well and the cookies are tasty for being so simple. One thing that really helped was to chill the dough before rolling it into cookies... it made it less sticky and much more manageable. Also, I'd probably only cook them for about 11 minutes.Thanks for the recipe!

I made them with extra chunky peanut butter and they were hard to roll, but they turned out okay. Need to let them cool on the sheet or they will crumble when you lift them off. think I will make them with half creamy next time or reg crunchy. I have some cousins who are gluten free so this looked like an easy recipe. for larger amount 2 eggs 2 cups PB and 2 cups sugar works also.

I made these for my father who is a diabetic. He can't get enough of them. In order to keep the dough from sticking to my hands, I very lightly dusted the dough with a touch of powdered sugar.

Although these cookies tasted ok I much prefer other PB cookie recipes that I have.

Made it the first time as directed. Too sweet for me, so next time made it with c 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 tsp vanilla, oh and used crunchy peanut butter. Baked at 350 for 13 min. perfect.

I was really skeptical about making cookies without flour. I decided to try it and they are surprisingly good.. I mean really good. They are soft, smooth and chewy without the grainy texture. I don't know how you would criss-cross them with a fork as the dough is really sticky and hard to work with. I just plopped tablespoons full of dough onto the sheet. I baked them @ 350 for 14 minutes. I tried doing it as the other reviews stated (375 for 8 minutes or so) and my bottoms burned and the middle was not done.Perfect at 350 for 1 minutes. You'll just have to experiment to see what works best for you. They are really good though and deserve a try.

I decided to try these by reading others comments. My husband LOVES these cookies! He said it was the best pb cookies ever. He can't stop eating them! I only cooked mine for about 8 mins with my oven and my batch made about 14 cookies. I think I am going to have to make another batch!

I added 2Tbsp sour cream, and substituted splenda for sugar. These cookies had no adhesion and flaked and crumbled and I'm not sure if it was that they were undercooked? After reading others reviews to cook it for just over 10 minutes, I tried this myself and the cookies came out undercooked. I will try it again cooking them longer, and hopefully be able to gauge when they are really done. I have no idea how to tell what they will look like when they are ready! The taste of them is fine. Will probably be better when cooked all the way through.
