This has got to be the easiest recipe yet for this wonderful cookie.
I call them 1-2-3 1-1-1 Peanut Butter Cookies...1-2-3 because they're so
fast and easy, 1-1-1 because of the ease in remembering the recipe ingredients.
Don't be put off by the simplicity of it...and despite challenges to the
contrary, the recipe works WITHOUT flour.

Turn 90 degrees and use fork again to create cross hatches.
