the perfect balance of crispy and creamy. Stir

together a cup each of sugar and peanut butter

with an egg. Shape dough into 1¼-inch balls,

then roll in sugar. Arrange balls 2 inches apart

on a greased cookie sheet and flatten with a

fork. Bake in a 375°F oven until edges are lightly

browned, about 8 minutes. Let cool 1 minute,

then transfer to wire racks. Makes 32 cookies.

   than a perfect bowling score. Put a 3-oz. pkg. ramen noodles (no seasoning packet),
   3 oz. cooked shredded chicken, and a sliced red pepper in a bowl. Pour in 1¼ cups
   boiling water, cover, and let stand 5 minutes. Whisk together 2 Tbsp. peanut butter,
   1½ tsp. each soy sauce and rice vinegar, ¼ tsp. sugar, and a pinch crushed red pepper in
   a small bowl. Pour sauce over noodles and chicken, then toss to combine. Makes 1 bowl.

SPEEDY SAUCE

Quick and Spicy Peanut Butter Sauce

is great as a dipping sauce for lettuce

wraps or as a stir-fry sauce for chicken.

Stir together ¼ cup each sugar and

peanut butter, 2 Tbsp. water, and

1 Tbsp. vegetable oil in a saucepan

over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring

frequently, just until bubbly and

smooth (it will look a little curdled

until then). Stir in sriracha to taste.

Makes about ½ cup.
