These cookies are a real hit, they are so cute and are very fun to make... and they don't even take a long time. I made these cookies for some youth and they were done in about 5 minutes. Everyone loves them.
Makes about 2 and a half dozen!
Cookies:
1 Cup Creamy Peanut Butter
1/2 Cup Butter, Softened
1/2 Cup Sugar
1/2 Packed Brown Sugar
1 Egg
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1 1/2 Cups All-Purpose Flour
1/2 Teaspoon Baking Soda
1/2 Cup Peanut Halves
2 Tablespoons M&M's
4 Teaspoons Miniature Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
60-66 Pieces Red Shoelace Licorice
Directions:
In a large mixing bowl, cream peanut butter, butter, sugar and brown sugar together. Beat in egg and vanilla. Combine the flour and baking soda; gradually add to the cr
eamed mixture. Refrigerate for an hour or until easy to handle. Pre-heat oven to 350*
Roll into 1-inch balls. Place 2 inches apart on a baking sheet. Pinch each ball at one end to give it a tapered look. Insert two peanut halves in center of each ball for the ears. Add one M&M for the nose and the mini chocolate chips for the eyes. Bake for about 8-10 minutes or until set. They won't be dark when they are done, they will almost look raw, but not quite. Once out of the over, gently insert one piece of licorice for the tail. Move to wire racks and cool completely.
