Inspired by a popular TikTok recipe, these easy biscuits require only peanut butter, brown sugar and egg – but we recommend adding dark chocolate to cut the sweetness of the dough.
Ingredients

- 1 cup no-salt smooth peanut butter

1. Beat peanut butter, sugar and eggs together. Add in chocolate chips at the end (if using).
2. Roll into balls, place on a tray lined with baking parchment and squish down with a fork.
3. Bake at 180ºC for 10 minutes. Allow to cool slightly and enjoy!
Cook's note: Inspired by a popular TikTok recipe, these cookies are quite rich, and quite sweet – although we've reduced the sugar slightly. We also suggest adding chopped dark chocolate to help balance the sweetness. You can also add a pinch of salt to the dough to help with this. That said, they are gluten-free and make a great treat for people trying to avoid gluten!
