The Most Famous Reindeer of All Cookies
Cookie Week 2023: Day 2 We have a festive take on the classic peanut blossom cookies.
Today’s cookies I am naming, The Most Famous Reindeer of All Cookies after the classic Rudolph, The Red-Nosed Reindeer movie.
Instead of placing the Hershey Kiss candy in the center of the peanut butter cookie, I put them down low with a red M&M to replicate a Rudolph nose. Add some candy eyeballs and pretzel antlers, and you have an adorable reindeer cookie that will be a hit with both kids and adults!
