3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies

You can bake peanut butter cookies for up to a week. If you don't eat the cookies right away, you can store them in an airtight container. These cookies won't spread in the oven. Instead, they'll be flattened in your mouth. If you don't want to wait for them to set, you can bake them for up to three days. When they're finished baking, make sure they're cool enough to store in the refrigerator.

Notes

You should prepare your peanut butter cookies well in advance. Ensure that the ingredients are in a cool place and don't use a lot of water. Adding water or a few drops of milk will help the batter cook more quickly. Regardless of what you do, a little bit of salt goes a long way in making these treats. In addition, it's best to let the dough cool completely before eating it.
