Soft, tasty peanut butter cookies with a touch of jelly on top. No flour needed.

Ingredients

1 cup peanut butter
1 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons fruit preserves, any flavor

Directions

1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2 In a medium bowl, mix together peanut butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla until well blended. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets. Use a fork to make a criss-cross pattern on the top.
