Flourless Peanut butter Cookies

1 C. Peanut Butter chunky or creamy ( I use skippy Brand)

1 C. Packed light or dark brown sugar (I use C & H brand)

1 Large Egg, slightly beaten

1 tsp. baking soda

1C Semisweet chocolate chips 6oz. (I use tollhouse brand)

Heat oven to 350 deg.

In Medium size bowl beat together peanut butter, brown sugar, egg and soda until the mixture is smooth and well blended. Stirr in chips until evenly distributed.

Drop the dough by slightly rounded teaspoonfulls onto ungreased baking sheets, spacing the mounds about 2 inches apart.

bake one baking sheet at a time in the 350 deg. oven until cookies are puffed and slightly golden, but still soft to the touch. About 10 min.

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet on a wire rack for about 5 min. Then transfer the cookies to the wire rack; let cool completely.

Makes about 2 dozen cookies

My family LOVED these cookies....they didn't last long. They were VERY easy to make.

Another recipe for flourless peanut butter cookies that my mom started making for me as a child and now i make for myself and family:

1 cup creamy peanut butter

1 cup of sugar

1 egg

1 tablespoon of vanilla.

Mix all ingredients together. Roll into balls and put on cookie sheet. flatten out with a fork and bake at 325 degrees for about 13 minutes.

Yummy yummy! Makes about 1 1/2 dozen.

Ohmigosh. I just made these -- the first recipe, but then I thought the vanilla in the second recipe was a good idea so I added some vanilla -- and they were SO good. I can't stop eating them. Do they freeze well? If they do, I'm totally going to keep a batch in the freezer at all times so I can just pull one cookie at a time out to snack on, rather than making a batch and eating it all in the first day or two. Thank you for the recipe!

I don't know how well they will freeze. I haven't tried to freeze them yet. I'm not sure they would keep their soft squishy melt-in-your-mouth consistency after being in the freezer. Let me know if you try to freeze some and see how they turn out.

I didn't have enough to even put in the freezer after my family got ahold of them! ha :D

It would probably be better to freeze the dough in smaller serving sizes and then thaw and bake whenever you want some. I do this with choc. chip and sugar cookies and they turn out fine.

God bless,

You know what I do with chocolate chip cookies? I freeze them and then when I want one, rather than defrosting it in the microwave, I put it in the toaster. It kind of gives it that warm-from-the-oven taste and texture much better than the microwave. So I froze a few of the peanut butter cookies and I'll try defrosting them each way and see what if anything works.

I live alone, and I don't want to be eating a whole batch every time I just want one cookie!

Ok. I have completed my experiment. You can freeze these cookies. Straight from the freezer they're cold (duh) and crunchy but they taste fine. The microwave and the toaster turn out to be about equally good ways to warm them. They retain a little crunchy/chewiness but they also get soft and melty in the middle.

I am very full now. :P But happy. But kind of wondering what the scale will say in the morning. :rolleyes:

When I was not a member, I saw this recipe a long time ago. I should have posted then, but am posting now. This is a very good cookie. I used it for a long time but have since lost it. I didn't think I'd ever find it again. It was just here, just like that! I didn't even get frustrated looking for it. I am going to make them right now. To the woman who posted this recipe... it is very good. Thankyou. :P

Ok I will. I am out of computer paper.... I cannot print this out. I'm afraid to lose it again. I suppose a pencil and paper will have to do. I don't know if I can remember how to actually write. :lol:

Oh my goodness! You are still a member? That was 2004! Well, amazing! And amazing cookie!

I can't do dairy or soya so it's near impossible to find chocolate chips I can have... and even then, I'm not a huge chocolate fan anyhow.

but that would be what, like 100 or 150 g of choc chips?

I just pour a few in, stir it up & then see if it looks like how many I want. I like less. My hub was making them last night, so he chose how many to put in....you can barely get any cookie with your choc chips. :D

You could add some peanuts if you wanted. I saw some Dairy & soy free choc chips but I'm in Kansas and I think you are having your adventure in Ireland? Can you get PB easily there? I know someone who went years ago & brought thier own from the US.

This is the recipe I use:

PB is easy to find! other kinds of nut butters are too expensive tho, except maybe sunflower seed butter that I found in one shop in the city centre. there's plenty of gluten-free stuff but I haven't found any chocolate that's dairy AND soya free. not that I'm looking.

haha I don't even have food scales, I just get like 500 grams of sugar, and I'm like, "okay, like a third of this" or whatever when I see recipes

I use chunky peanut butter to get all those chunks in it. I fed these cookies to some friends and the landlady yesterday and today! they are a huge hit! and they can't even tell there's no flour in

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch--thanks for the tip about Dupixent, and I've added it to the article:

      I just want to clarify that what I posted is a category of research summaries we've done over the years, and nearly each one shows that there is definitely a connection to celiac disease and migraine headaches. The latest study said: "the study did indicate some potential causal associations between celiac disease and migraine with or without aura, as well as between migraine without aura and ulcerative colitis...this study did not find evidence of a shared genetic basis..." Anyway, there is definitely a connection, and you can go through more of the articles here if you're interested: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/migraine-headaches-and-celiac-disease/

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By SusanJ · Posted

      Two months ago, I started taking Dupixent for dermatitis herpetiformis and it has completely cleared it up. I can't believe it! I have had a terrible painful, intensely itchy rash for over a year despite going fully gluten-free. See if your doctor will prescribe Dupixent. It can be expensive but I am getting it free. When the dermatitis herpetiformis was bad I could not do anything. I just lay in bed covered in ice packs to ease the pain/itching and using way too Clobetasol. Dapsone is also very good for dermatitis herpetiformis (and it is generic). It helped me and the results were immediate but it gave me severe anemia so the Dupixent is better for me. Not sure if it works for everyone. I cannot help with the cause of your stress but from experience I am sure the severe stress is making the celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis worse. Very difficult for you with having children to care for and you being so sick. Would this man be willing to see a family therapist with you? He may be angry at you or imagine that your illness is a psychosomatic excuse not to take care of him. A therapist might help even if he won't go with you. Also do you have any family that you could move in with (with the kids) for a short time to get away? A break may be good for you both.

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      @tiffanygosci, Thiamine deficiency is a thing in pregnancy for "normal" people, so it's exponentially more important for those with celiac disease and malabsorption issues. I studied nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology because I was curious what the vitamins were doing inside the body.  See my blog.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll to drop down menu "activities" and select blog.   So glad you're motivated to see the dietician!  We're always happy to help with questions.  Keep us posted on your progress!

      Thank you for sharing all of this, Knitty Kitty! I did just want someone to share some commonality with. I did not know This one Deficiency was a thing and that it's common for Celiac Disease. It makes sense since this is a disorder that causes malabsorption. I will have to keep this in mind for my next appointments. You also just spurred me on to make that Dietician appointment. There's a lot of information online but I do need to see a professional. There is too much to juggle on my own with this condition.<3
