Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies

Well, FINALLY here is my version of this recipe. I say finally because it has taken me a few tries to get them right. The flavor was always so delicious, but the cookie it self struggled just a bit. So here is the final recipe that did, and has worked.
I love this recipe not only because it is very tasty, especially if you like peanut butter, but it is also so easy to make and you can do extra things* to them to make them look like it took you hours to do. You can keep it a secret that it only took 5 minutes to mix up and then bake them. :] Have fun with them and enjoy this gluten free goodness of a cookie.
Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies
Ingredients
1 cup organic peanut butter (make sure it is mixed up well, if separated)
1/2 cup evaporated cane juice
1/4 cup organic brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
2 eggs
Directions
Preheat oven to 350*F. In a medium sized bowl combine all ingredients, the dough will be firm. Drop balls by spoon on cookie sheet. Form balls a little with your hands and then with the back side of a fork slightly press into ball making little squares. Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool on cookie sheet. Once cool remove from cookie sheet and enjoy! Makes just over 2 dozen cookies
*You can also melt carob and dip half of the cookie in melted carob. Place cookie on wax paper to cool after dipping.
* You can also drizzle melted carob over cookies while they are on wax paper for this affect.
