Flourless Peanut Butter Cookie

With only 5 or 6 ingredients, these cookies are simple, delicious and one could almost get away with saying slightly "healthy!" No flour, so can be considered gluten free. I love sprinkling sea salt on the top and adding dark chocolate chips to give them a bit of pizazz! They're sightly more crumbly than a recipe that includes flour and butter, but I don't care...they are delicious! I doubt you will either!

  5.  Bake until golden around the edges, about 12 minutes. Let cool at least five minutes before eating.
