13 Adventures: #11 Peanut Butter Blossoms

Peanut butter blossoms are, hands down, my favorite Christmas cookie, and have been for as long as I remember. Since I’m not going home for Christmas, I decided to make my own today! My favorite part, besides eating them, is taking all the Hershey’s Kisses out of their foil wrappings. It’s like unwrapping a bunch of tiny presents!

Putting the kisses on top after they’re right out of the oven is also really fun! They turned out great:

Beautiful!!

Servery Steven’s Kitchen Challenge: Self-Portrait Cookie Edition

These always involve Top Chef-style timed challenges, but in the Servery and with some kind of “celebrity judge” (i.e. Brent or a prospie or Arya).
