    @Jenna
    1 cup Peanut Butter = 1538 Calories
    1 cup Brown Sugar = 766 Calories
    1 large egg = 86 Calories
    1/2 cup Chocolate Chips = 440 Calories
    So 24 cookies would be 117 calories per cookie.

    I love how simple these cookies are! I wonder if I’ll make it past the dough stage…

    I had to try these because I couldn’t believe so few ingredients would turn into cookies. They did and they were so good and so easy, I’ll make them a lot.

    Hi, I hope this isn’t a “stupid” question (I don’t bake often) but can I sub dark brown for light brown sugar for these cookies?
    Thanks!

    Lorie, There are no stupid questions! Yes you could sub it out. It is just a little richer with the dark brown.

    I just made these and while they taste pretty good, I think they cookies are very fragile, they crumble at my fingertips even after letting them set for at least 10 minutes. My husband said the PB taste is a little overpowering. I did wonder at first how it didn’t call for flour. That said, not my favorite cookie recipe but definitely not bad either.

    I wanted to update you that husband ended up taking all the cookies to work because it was not much his cup of tea. But they were a huge hit! I know his coworkers and they were all raving about how great they were! Thanks for making me a star baker =D

    Oh, Michelle, I’m glad to hear that! I know these cookies can be fragile, but if you make them again, try a different brand of peanut butter, they all have slightly different consistencies.
