Add chopped walnuts, almonds or even chopped peanuts to the batter.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make peanut butter and jelly thumbprint cookies: <\/strong>Instead of flattening the cookies with a fork, flatten them with the side of a spatula or flat glass. Then, gently press the back of a spoon into a just-baked cookie and add a dollop of strawberry or grape jam.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Try brown sugar:\u00a0<\/strong>To make cookies that are a bit less sweet but have a rich, robust taste, use brown sugar instead of the white.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Store 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies<\/h2>\n<p>Peanut butter cookies tend to dry out fast so store them at room temperature in an airtight cookie storage container and enjoy them within two to three days. Storing them in the fridge will add a day or two but might make the cookies crumbly.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I freeze peanut butter cookies?<\/h3>\n<p>It&#8217;s best to freeze the peanut butter cookies is in batter form. You can shape the dough into balls and freeze them. Just lay them out on a baking sheet, let them freeze for several hours and store the frozen raw dough balls in an airtight container in the freezer for up to three months. Already-baked cookies can be frozen for three to four weeks.<\/p>\n<h2>3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookie Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2026876\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Three-ingredient-peanut-butter-cookies-_TOHD24_2733_SarahTramonte_3.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Full yield of Taste Recipes 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies on a black plate, milk glasses and pitcher\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Sarah Tramonte for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>What&#8217;s the best peanut butter for peanut butter cookies?<\/h3>\n<p>This peanut butter cookie recipe calls for creamy peanut butter\u00a0 and as with any recipe, following the ingredient list yields the best, most consistent results. However, you can use crunchy peanut butter instead to add extra texture to these cookies. Substituting natural peanut butter for traditional peanut butter is trickier, as natural peanut butter has no added sugar or stabilizing ingredients and can impact the taste and texture of the finished cookies.<\/p>\n<h3>How do you make peanut butter cookies better?<\/h3>\n<p>You can liven up these peanut butter cookies by adding mix-ins or by drizzling them with chocolate. Try folding in one cup of dark chocolate chips or chopped peanuts before baking. For some extra sweetness, drizzle your favorite icing over the cooled cookies. Of course a dusting of sugar over the cooling cookies never hurt.<\/p>\n<h3>Why are my peanut butter cookies falling apart?<\/h3>\n<p>The main reason for dry, crumbly cookies is overbaking. Every oven is slightly different so check the cookies a few minutes before the recommended baking time is up. Your peanut butter cookies should appear soft in the center \u2014a little under baked, but not raw\u2014 with golden edges. The cookies will firm up as they cool.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yes, you really can make amazing peanut butter cookies with just three ingredients; just follow this
