Who says Christmas cookies have to be difficult? When my son was little, the one thing he wasn’t allergic to was peanuts. And I so wanted to make his Christmas special, so I used the only cookie recipe I had available to me at the time, and I made my peanut butter cookies into snowmen.
They’ve become a Christmas family staple! It just doesn’t feel like Christmas unless we’ve had some of these.
Also–they’re quick! Sometimes I can feel my family dragging a bit, needing a bit of cheering up for some reason or other, and these take twenty minutes, including the time in the oven!
Ingredients:
Peanut Butter– 1 1/2 cups
Salt–a dash
Sugar– 1 cup
Baking powder– 1 tsp
Eggs–2
Flour–2 tbsp
Directions:
Mix it up! Put some parchment paper on a cookie sheet. Then make them into balls in the shape of snowmen, and flatten them with a fork.
Bake at 350F for 12 minutes.
A dusting of powdered sugar would be pretty on top, too!
They are SO GOOD! Even better with a glass of milk! (Almond milk for us.)
And while you’re whipping up some Christmas cookies, have you picked up my new Christmas release, An Amish Bookshop Courtship? It has all the Christmassy feels!
Happy reading!
