I am always looking to party recipes for Valentine's Day that do not necessarily require pink red food coloring to be involved. I am not opposed to it do not get me wrong, but it is nice to have the possibility of a natural treatment that still packs a festive punch. These cookies are not only a favorite for their winning combo of flavor and perfect texture of the cookies, but they are so darn cute are not they?
Similarly to the preferred variety of Christmas that uses a kiss or chocolate peanut butter cup, this cookie requires a chocolate heart is pressed into a peanut butter hot biscuit. Any variety / Chocolate Hearts brand will do, but I find that using the brand of Reese was perfect as it added more creamy goodness of peanut butter. Freezing the chocolate in advance farm guard in the warm cookie and once the fresh cookies that you have a treatment quite perfect V-day.
