Reindeer Cookies

The kids and I tried reindeer cookies this year.  I had made them with my little cousins when they were younger, but my children had never tried them.  

As it turned out, they found reindeer to be a little bit boring, so we ended up with reindeer, snowmen and even a peanut butter and M&M alien!

They all turned out to be original!

Reindeer Cookies

3/4 cup peanut butter

3/4 tsp. soda

1/4 tsp. salt

Preheat oven to 375.  Roll into 1 1/4 in. balls for the head and 1 in. balls for the snout.  Press in M&M's and pretzels to make the face.  Bake 10-12 minutes.
