Experiment No. 2: Cookies Part 2

Peanut Butter Cookies

While thinking about blue food ideas for a recipe this Friday night’s cooking session, I decided to use up the rest of my peanut butter by making peanut butter cookies. 1 cup peanut butter, 1 cup sugar, and 1 egg (I learned this recipe from one of Emeril’s kid cook books). It is the most simple, pure, and delicious recipe for peanut butter cookies I have come across yet. It makes about 2 dozen.

The peanut-y scents really overwhelm my hall, and I have the guys across the hall salavating, waiting for the beep of my toaster oven to summon them. One of my friends mischieviously dipped his finger into the batter and proclaimed it an orgasmically delicious creation. I love baking in my dorm.

I pass my time by writing to you all, watching faces go by, and studying for my Nutrition test tomorrow. I am focusing on the section on glycogenesis…

They came out in perfect rounds, although I burnt the last batch. It had more of a roasted nut flavor than the smooth peanut-y flavor of the previous batches. If I had not run out of chocolate chips by making my Banana Oatmeal Cookies, I would have probably added them to the peanut butter dough…Enjoy!
