These 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies Will Blow Your Mind With Taste And Nostalgia

Peanut butter is part of the starting lineup of the pantry staple essentials in our Test Kitchen and nearly every BHG editor’s home. Although we fell in love with it as kiddos as part of PB&Js (sans-crust at the time, of course), we’ve grown to adore featuring peanut butter in both sweet and savory dishes. A spoonful is all it takes to transform a bowl of morning oats or quinoa from boring to day-brightening. We also rely on it often to star in cookies, Reese’s copycat cups, cozy peanut stews, and beyond.

Close friends know that I am a big-time chocolate-lover. If there’s no chocolate in the dessert you’re offering me, chances are high that I’ll politely decline. Even bigger than my enthusiasm for chocolate though, is my love for the specific combination of chocolate and peanut butter. This duo makes me weak in the knees and it truly came as a shock to me when I realized not everyone cares for it.

When it comes to frosty treats, ice cream reigns supreme and remains one of America’s favorite desserts, whether as a cool ending to a sultry summer day or the perfect topping for a slice of apple pie. And with unrelenting heat waves being the summer norm, certainly a bowl of ice cream is more appetizing than chocolate cake. But like most sweets, it can be downright indulgent, with high amounts of saturated fat and added sugar that means an extra scoop or two can derail your healthy eating goals.

If you’ve ever eaten a spoonful of flavored yogurt, you know just how sweet it can be. Most dairy products contain some sugar because lactose—aka milk sugar—is a sugar. However, naturally occurring lactose is considered a natural sugar. But some varieties of dairy products—yogurts, ice cream, kefir, cottage cheese—might also contain added sugars if they’re flavored. After all, sweetened dairy products are one of the top sources of added sugar in our diet.
