The Case of the Mysteriously Vanishing Cookies

Tonight's entry may have been heavily influenced by the Miss Marple mystery I watched earlier; or perhaps, it could really be legitimate.  Either way, I bring you a most curious dilemma.  You see, I've made these treats twice in the last two weeks (in a double batch, even!), and every time, they end up disappearing.  Poof!

The only solution is to make them for yourselves and find out what happens.  Oh, and report back to me, if you please, as confirmation that I'm not imagining things.  (That would be a most welcomed relief...)

Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies


Yields: 16 cookies

Ingredients:

• 3/4 cup brown sugar 
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• 1/2 tsp. vanilla
• 1 egg, beaten 
• 1 cup peanut butter (either crunchy or creamy will do)
• 1 cup chocolate chips

MY ADD-INS: 

• 1 tsp. cinnamon
• 1 tsp. unsweetened cocoa powder

Directions:

Mix all the ingredients together, and drop in one-inch spoonfulls onto a greased cookie sheet.  Bake at 350° for 12 minutes.  Cool on cookie sheets for 3-5 minutes, and then serve. 

 

 
Peanut butter + chocolate?  A heavenly combination, indeed.
