Bake Sale Cookies...Peanut Butter Blossoms

Peanut Butter Blossoms


Yes!  I totally cheated at these.  But if you know me and my record of baked goods...it's not, well...so good.  I always end up with some form of battle scar (burn).  I get frustrated...I yell...and my poor family wants me to leave.  Grrr...

So, why do I offer to make cookies for the bake sale you ask? Or cut-outs for Marcus' birthday?  Because even though I am not a good baker, I am a good mom.  And I know Marcus appreciates it and is proud to say "My mom made those cookies!"  or cupcakes, or whatever it is I volunteer for.  

Even if these don't count because they are the easiest cookies to make ever, I have to say...it is a bake sale miracle!  I managed to make 4 dozen + cookies without a burn.  AND the kitchen was clean, all the dishes were done and I was not "losing it" when Josh got home from work.  I am so proud.  HAHAHA!

Here is the recipe, just in case you can't read the Hershey Kisses Package...LOL.

I actually made one pkg of peanut butter and one sugar cookie because of all the food allergies these days!
