Easter Eggie Peanut Butter Cookies

Course Dessert

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Butter softened
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1 cup granulated Sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup Creamy Peanut Butter
  • 3 cups All-purpose Flour
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon Salt
  • Hershey Eggies

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Mix the softened butter and vanilla together in a mixer on medium speed until well blended (about 2 minutes).

  3. While the mixer is still mixing on medium speed, add your brown and granulated sugar. Continue to mix until well blended.

  4. Add the eggs, and then the peanut butter, and continue to mix until well blended. 

  5. Add the flour, baking powder, and salt and continue to mix on a low speed until all ingredients are well combined. 

  6. Make 1 1/2 inch peanut butter dough balls, and place them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. 

  7. Dip a greased fork in granulated sugar, and press into the top of the cookie to make the fork print X on the top of each cookie.
  8. Add a Hershey Eggie to the top each cookie. Maybe go wild and add a few on each, to make it look like a little nest. 

  9. Place in the preheated oven for 9 minutes.

  10. Enjoy for Eggie Peanut Butter Cookies!
