We are peanut butter lovers, and I was itching to use my spritz maker. I found the recipe on the blog Happier Than A Pig In Mud. I could easily "pig" out on many of the recipes on her blog.
We loved these cookies, and they fit perfectly in these vintage looking Santa containers that I found at the Dollar Tree. I fell in love with the Santa mugs at the Pottery Barn this year, so you can imagine how my eyes lit up when I spotted these cute containers for a buck.

Here are the adorable mugs from the Pottery Barn. I especially love the mug with Santa winking ;o)
