Reindeer Cookies

Aren't these cute! You can use your favorite peanut butter cookie recipe or here's mine:

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg well beaten
1 1/4 cups flour
3/4 tsp soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt.

Cream together the first three ingredients. Add well-beaten egg. Sift and add the rest of the ingredients. Shape into balls and flatten with fork dipped in sugar. Nuts are optional. Bake at 350 for 10-12 min.

For the reindeer cookies -- shape into a 7 1/2 in. roll; wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 1 hour. Unwrap and cut into 1/4 in. slices. Place on ungreased baking sheets. Using thumb and forefinger, make a slight indention one third of the way down the sides of each slice. Press in mini pretzels for antlers, chocolate chips for eyes, and a red hot for the nose. Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes or until light brown. Remove to wire racks to cool.
