Peanut butter cookies are a favorite in our neighborhood. I actually made them last year for Halloween and kids loved it so much more than candy to be honest. I think I will do the same this year. It will be such a nice little treat and different than what the rest of the neighborhood is giving out. Check out what our friends over at Six Sister’s Stuff had to say about these,
“One of my favorite treats has always been apples with peanut butter! After having an overwhelming amount of apples from our tree this year, I decided to throw them into a cookie recipe to see how they would taste. Who knew adding apples to peanut butter cookies could be so delicious! You’ll love the sweet taste of these Apple Peanut Butter Cookies.”
