Ww 1 Point Peanut Butter Cookies

---

I recently developed a craving for peanut butter cookies, a challenge for someone watching their points. Found this on the weight watchers website and have modified it to boost the nutty flavor without changing the points.

Steps

---

Melt the margarine or butter in a small saucepan until it sizzles and just begins to brown.

---

Remove from heat and freeze for 20 minutes , or until firm.

---

While butter or margarine is cooling , combine flour , baking soda and salt in a small bowl.

---

Combine margarine and peanut butter in another mixing bowl , beating on medium speed until blended and smooth.

---

Gradually add both sugars and beat until blended.

---

Add egg white and vanilla and beat until smooth.

---

While beating on low speed , gradually add flour mixture and mix until just blended.

---

Transfer dough to a large piece of plastic wrap and roll into an 8-inch log.

---

Wrap log in plastic wrap and freeze for 2 hours.

---

Preheat oven to 350f.

---

Coat 2 large baking sheets with cooking spray.

---

Remove cookie dough from freezer and slice crosswise into 1 / 3 inch-thick slices.

---

Place slices 1 inch apart on prepared baking sheets.

---

Bake until golden around edges , about 8 to 10 minutes.

Transfer cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
