Didn't I just post about peanut butter blossoms last week? Um, yeah, I totally did. However, I volunteered myself to make cookies for D's work this week, so another batch of pb blossoms was on my to-do list. I tried a new recipe this time, and I really love the way these turned out. I think they taste better than last week's version, too. So, if you're going to make peanut butter blossoms this holiday season (or, you know, whenever), I suggest you give this recipe a try.
