The 3 Magic Ingredients
Now let’s talk about what makes these cookies so special. Do a good amount of heavy lifting for each ingredient.
Eggs:** The eggs hold everything together and give the cookies an amazing texture.
Sugar:** Regular granulated sugar is called for. Brown sugar or even sugar substitutes can also work.
Peanut Butter:** This contributes richness and, of course, peanut butter flavor! For best texture use processed peanut butter. Xanthan gum performs well in pudding and sauces, where it can restrict the mobility of even small amounts of oil, so I couldn’t find another use where it worked better than mixing peanut oil into natural peanut butter (which tends to be too oily).
