Easy Yummy Goodness

Here is a recipe from a good friend of mine for super easy peanut butter cookies (that just so happen to be gluten free, if you are interested):

1 cup peanut butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla

Roll into balls, press with a fork and bake at 350 for around 8 minutes. Press chocolate into cookie after baking. I recommend leaving the cookies on the sheet for 5 minutes or so before moving them to a cooling rack (or the counter.)

Enjoy!
