Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together peanut butter, egg, sugar, baking soda, vanilla, if using, and salt until well combined.
Using a 1 3/4-inch scoop, scoop dough onto prepared baking sheet, spacing 2 inches apart. Using the tines of a fork, gently press down on each scoop in a crosshatch pattern. Sprinkle with sugar and transfer baking sheet to oven. Bake until slightly puffed, 11 to 12 minutes. Cookies will still be soft. Let cool for 5 minutes. Carefully transfer cookies to a wire rack and let cool completely.
The most simple and quick cookie recipe ever. I ran out of Peanut Butter, so I used about 1/3 of a cup of Nutella and 2/3 of a cup of Peanut Butter instead. The Nutella overpowers the PB, but they are delicious! Be careful, they expanded into giant cookies in the oven. Boyfriend says these are now his favorites.
I used pistachio butter, egg whites and coconut sugar and am certain stevia or xylitol would work and to sweeten a bit more I added a teaspoon of fruit juice sweetened fig jam - excellent! I served with fresh strawberries and coconut cream...oh, so yummy!

I'm making these and it just doesn't look right. Where's the flour? The dough looks like I might get about 10 cookies. I'm adding flour.
So very easy ... SO VERY GOOD! Thank you for sharing this one....
Thanks for the simple and delish recipe! The cookies mix up in five minutes and I had everything on hand easily! They are just sweet and yummy! Susan Hahaj
