Instructions

  1. Preheat the over to 350 degrees F.

  2. Place the peanut butter, sugar, and egg in a medium-size bowl. Stir until well combined. Drop by heaping tablespoons spaced 2 inches apart onto an ungreased baking sheet.

  3. Press mini marshmallows or chocolate chunks into the surface of the cookies, if desired.

  4. Bake for 10 to 11 minutes, or until the edges are slightly browned. Let cool on the baking sheet for 3 minutes before moving to a cooling rack to cool completely.
