What to Cook for a Gluten Free Guest: Dessert 2

Maybe ice cream isn't your style. Maybe it's -20 degrees outside, and you would really rather bake something nice and warm. Gluten free desserts can be tricky, so we'll start small.

My brother-in-law Jared (of He Sowed She Sowed fame) swears by these. And he's not wrong - they are delicious, easy, and 100% gluten free.

Ingredients:
1 cup sugar (white or brown)
1 cup peanut butter (smooth works best)

3. Cover a cookie sheet with tinfoil.
4. Press dough balls onto sheet using a criss-cross pattern with a fork.
5. Bake for 12 minutes.
6. Let cool on the sheet for 1-2 minutes and then remove with a spatula to cool on a wire rack. Makes 12-18 cookies.
