These rudolph peanut butter cookies are super easy to make and a fantastic holiday cookie recipe to make everyone happy and full of holiday cheer.

We want to share a moment here, a gift of holiday spirit because we, Diane and Todd, have been longing for something bright, fun and festive over this last week.
We sincerely wish you all, the warmest of the holiday season, with continued love, family, health and friendship. Without the joy that you bring to us everyday, we wouldn’t be here today.

Peanut Butter Reindeer Cookies
Yield: 24 Cookies
Prep Time: 20 minutes mins

Total Time: 30 minutes mins
We recommend only baking one sheet pan at a time, since you need to quickly place the facial features into the cookies as soon as they come out of the oven and before they have a chance to set. Also have your eyes, noses, and antlers ready before you start baking so you aren't scrambling when the cookies come out of the oven.

I’m really sorry I missed these this Christmas…I had a list a mile long of cookies to bake, but I would have definitely squeezed these in. I’ve pinned them for next year!
