Peanut Butter Heart Cookies for Valentines Day
Peanut Butter Heart Cookies
Peanut butter cookies are sweet, salty and crunchy and just aren’t the same unless they’re homemade! I’ve got a great recipe for peanut butter cookies that’s easy and quick. Add a little extra sweetness to them to make them perfect for Valentine’s Day! You’re Valentine will not turn them away.
I love peanut butter cookies and they usually don’t last long at our house. Making peanut butter cookies in a favorite in my house, it could be the fun of making the criss-cross and of course eating them afterward. I also really enjoy tweaking our favorite recipes to make them holiday themed, like adding a chocolate heart to PB cookies. Just very simple but makes them so fun for your loved ones!
