In a large bowl, mix the peanut butter and sugar together until smooth and well combined.
Roll the dough into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter) and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Use a fork to flatten each cookie slightly, creating a crisscross pattern.
Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown.
Let the cookies cool before serving or packaging.

Serve these cookies with a glass of milk for an extra indulgence.
Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or refrigerate for longer shelf life.
Variations:
Use different nut butters like cashew or sunflower butter for a unique twist.
Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or vanilla extract for extra flavor.

2 cups plain Greek yogurt (or flavored yogurt of your choice)
1 cup honey or maple syrup
Directions:
In a medium-sized bowl, mix the Greek yogurt and honey (or maple syrup) until smooth and creamy.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Spoon the yogurt mixture into small dollops or use a piping bag to create uniform bite-sized shapes.
