December is here, which means it’s almost time for Christmas cookies! I’m planning on taking a whole Sunday in the next week or so and just bakingĀ a few different kinds of cookies. I love doing some traditional Christmas cookies (sugar cookies, gingerbread people) and then experimenting with some new ones (last year I tried my hand at Linzer tarts). Still trying to finalize this year’s cookie list.
My most favorite cookies to make at Christmastime are peanut blossoms. You know, peanut butter cookies with a Hershey’s kiss pressed into the center. I’ve been making them for years and they’re always the first cookie to disappear.
This year, I decided to try something a little different: mini Reese’s peanut butter cups instead of kisses. And wow. Wow.
Wow.
These are absolutely amazing. I baked the cookies in a mini muffin tin, since the peanut butter cups are a little taller than the kisses.
