Add all ingredients to the beaten egg. Stir well.

Drop by small teaspoons onto parchment paper or silicone lined cookie sheet.

Bake for 10-12 minutes in preheated oven.

Remove cookie sheet from oven. Allow cookies to cool somewhat before attempting to remove from baking sheet using a thin metal spatula.
