Really Basic Peanut Butter Cookies

1 egg

1 cup packed brown sugar

1 cup peanut butter

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Combine egg, sugar and peanut butter, mixing well. Roll dough into small balls and place on a cookie sheet. Flatten balls with a fork.

Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Let cookies cool on cookie racks. Variation: add chocolate or peanut butter flavored chips to the dough for an extra little twist.
