This 3 step, Delicious Peanut Butter Blossom Cookies could make a kid friendly recipe (my 7 year old made these with little help.) Roll in colored sugar before baking for a festive look or leave the way it is for the Classic version.
This recipe was shared by Lily, who was kind enough to direct message me this hand written recipe! She mentioned that a coworker gave her the recipe and that, “they are so good”. I agree these are delicious!
