BAKE | PEANUT BUTTER BLOSSOMS

As I mentioned yesterday, Allison and I helped David bake cookies for his Church bake sale. These are the peanut butter cookies we made topped with a Hershey Kiss! This one was my favorite, but I love peanut butter so I'm probably biased. 
All ready for the bake sale!
