Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine peanut butter, sugar and egg. Mix until well combined. Scoop into 1 Tbsp balls and drop onto cookie sheet.
Using the tines of a fork, flatten cookie dough with criss-cross of fork tines.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, until lightly browned. Allow to cool completely. Pair the cookies in similar size/shape. Spoon a small dollop of strawberry fruit spread between cookies. Press together lightly and enjoy!
Notes
Pair cookies of similar size for best looking sandwiches.
Use a 1 tablespoon measuring spoon or scoop to make the cookies as evenly sized as possible.
If your peanut butter is refrigerated, let it come to room temperature before adding to the recipe. This makes it easier to mix the dough and incorporate the ingredients.
