Cute idea for the holidays! Little peanut butter reindeer with antlers and M&Ms for the eyes/nose. Haven't tried this yet (saw the finished result in a picture), but I certainly will- just wanted to get the recipe down. From CDkitchen. Ingredients:
1/2 cup soft margarine |
3/4 cup smooth peanut butter |
1/2 cup granulated sugar |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
1 egg |
1 1/4 cups flour |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
3/4 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
48 small pretzels |
m&m's plain chocolate candy (red and green, regular or mini) |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350°F.
2. Beat margarine, peanut butter, sugars, and egg thoroughly.
3. Mix all dry ingredients (except pretzels and M&Ms) together and blend into margarine mixture.
4. Roll dough into 24 large balls approximately 1 and 1/4 in diameter, and 24 smaller balls approximately 1 (a little less) in diameter.
5. Position one small ball under one large ball on a cookie sheet, then lightly press down and together to form shape of reindeer.
6. Press 2 pretzels into the top ball for antlers; add candy pieces for nose and eyes.
7. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
8. Remove and let cool.
9. Ideas: Red nose for Rudolph, brown for everyone else, and arrange in front of toy sled for edible centerpiece on kids' table.
