Witches Broom Peanut Butter Halloween Cookies Recipe

I know my husband is head over heels for this Halloween cookie recipe, it’s two of his very favorite sweet treats – peanut butter and chocolate, lol.  I can already tell you, it will be a sweet treat he will ask for again, so I’m probably going to have to come up with other fun recipes because the whole witches broom idea just doesn’t work for Christmas lol.  I’m sure we could do something like a fun chocolate dipped Christmas light bulb or something.

Enough about that, it’s not like time doesn’t fly by fast enough without me already talking about upcoming holidays.  I think it’s safe to say, many of us can only handle preparing for one holiday at a time, so let’s not jump too far ahead.

I hope you and your family have fun with the Witches Broom Peanut Butter Halloween Cookies recipe!  I know my kids love baking fun things with me, it’s been a great way for us to chat, have fun, and bond.  Thankfully baking is one thing all three of my girls enjoy doing, so it’s been a great way for us to stay connected and have a little fun making a mess.  The only thing that isn’t so funny is how quickly they all run in different directions when it’s clean up time, lol.

Enjoy!
