Happy April Fool's Day!!

I took some cookies to work - and the trick might be - everyone is afraid to eat them, in case it's a trick!!

I made simple Peanut Butter Cookies.

Here is the recipe:

PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES

1 cup peanut butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg

Mix together, make into balls - the size of walnuts.
Dip a fork in sugar, and press both ways, making a
criss-cross design. Bake 350 degrees for only 8
minutes. DO NOT OVERBAKE!

I sprinkled the tops of mine with chocolate chips
before I baked them.

Easy and yummy
