Flourless peanut butter cookies

Look Mom! No flour!
My mom was using this recipe for flourless peanut butter cookies 20 years ago. I'm sure she got the recipe from one of her church or school cookbooks. They are so delicious, I can't believe I haven't made them before! I became inspired to bake them because our youngest daughter and two precious grandsons are coming to visit today! and you can't come to Grandma's and not find some home-made cookies . . . can you? There are countless recipes on-line for these, but this is the recipe my mom used:

1 cup peanut butter
1 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla

Preheat oven to 350°F. Beat all together and form into balls using about 1 tablespoon batter. Arrange on ungreased baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart.
Bake cookies until puffed,  and golden on bottom - about 12 minutes. Cool on sheets 5 minutes. Transfer to racks; cool completely. Watch them! they burn easily. Enjoy.
