What is soft.. melt in your mouth.. and gooey?  Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Truffle Cookies!   Yes I know… I don’t like to bake.. so why am I posting another baked item?  Because these are SOOO GOOD and SOOO easy.  I have made these so many times that I can eyeball almost everything – so I dont need to measure. 😎  They are so easy that I even will bake a fresh batch for a special occassion before I leave for work in the morning (heck I dont even cook breakfast for my kids most mornings!)

These are so decadent you might think that there  would be more than 5 ingredients, but these are as simple as you can get.  No flour! Plus you can make this recipe vegan too!

• 1 cup Peanut butter – chunky is best.  I have used both regular peanut butter and reduced fat.  I wasn’t thrilled with the reduced fat version
• 1 cup frimly packed brown sugar
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 egg  TO MAKE VEGAN use 1 1/2 teaspoons Ener-G Egg + 2 tablespoons water

HOW TO

• Preheat Oven to 350
