Peanut Butter Chocolate Cookies!

This morning while I was waiting for the furnace people to come (we are getting a new furnace), I was doing some applique work and watching Good Morning America. Emeril was cooking and made a great looking Chili Mac (which I will try) and then he talked about some Peanut Butter Chocolate Cookies that were super easy and had no flour. So I tried them!

The recipe only makes 24 rather small cookies which is the perfect number when only 2 people live in this house. They really are simple (unless you tip over the sugar canister!) and good. Here is the recipe:

Peanut Butter-Chocolate Cookies
From Emeril Lagasse on Good Morning America

1 cup creamy peanut butter

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup packed light brown sugar

1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips

1 large egg, beaten

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2. Combine all the ingredients in a bowl, and stir until smooth.
3. Roll about 1 heaping teaspoon of dough between your hands to form a smooth ball. Place the balls on ungreased cookie sheets, spacing them 1 inch apart. Using a fork, press on the dough in two directions to form a crosshatch pattern.

4. Bake the cookies about 10 minutes. Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets. Then remove them with a metal spatula.

Makes about 24 cookies
