Aren't these cookies adorable?
(I found this recipe in December's Ladies Home Journal--there are several neat cookie recipes in there this month. )
Peanut Butter Rudolph Reindeer
1/2 cup unsalted butter
3/4 cup peanut butter
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups flour
1 t. baking soda
1/2 salt
48 large red M n M's
mini chocolate chips
Pretzels
Mix butter, peanut butter and sugar until light. Add eggs and vanila. mix well. Stir in flour, baking soda and salt until dough forms. Roll into 1 inch balls and place on cookie sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 8-10 minutes, until just set and bottom of cookie is golden brown. Then place one M'n'M in center for nose, two mini chocolate chips for eyes and 2 pretzel pieces on top for antlers. Allow to cool--then pat yourself on the back for making such a cute little holiday treat!
