Peanut Butter Cookies (Minus the Oven)


Now you might be wondering why exactly Elvis is holding what appears to be a ball of playdough.
You might be wondering this, or you might have realized that we added blue food coloring to a no bake peanut butter cookie recipe that is full of deliciousness. If you had already figured that out, i commend you! Gold star, A+! If not, tis ok, everyone we know wondered why we were eating playdough. Not that there's anything wrong with playdough, its salty, and there's nothing wrong with salt! Anyway, if you're looking for the easiest, fastest cookie i know of, then you should use this recipe, if you are looking for a cookie that takes a long, arduous process to make, go elsewhere. Now. Go.


So, Ingredients, eh? Granulated Sugar, Powdered Sugar, Butter, Graham Crackers, Peanut Butter. The book we got this from, well it includes all sorts of crazy stuff, like apricots, and...some other stuff. But that's lame. Delicious, I'm sure, but lame.


So, your first step is to put some graham crackers in a bag...


and smash em' I don't care how you do it, you don't even have to put them in a bag if you don't want to, just do what you gotta do to make graham cracker powder.


Now, throw that into a bowl with the other ingredients.


And mix it up. Add some food coloring, it'll make your life more interesting.



See there, gorgeous. This step is not very important: restrain yourself. you will want to eat it. You will want to eat all of it. It is delicious. But don't do it. Use self control. Or not...


Now, like a container with wax paper.


And roll the stuff into balls


Or spread it on a graham cracker, either way (yes that is what you think it is, it is another recipe from the book we used the book called (cookies! a cookies lover's collection, its a pretty spiffy book if i do say so myself)


and then put your cookie ball into the container. if you run out of space, make another layer of wax paper, and just keep going. Now, the book says to stick them in the fridge, so i do, but it shouldn't actually matter all that much. Unless your house is abnormally warm.


The very last step, is to contemplate this picture...just...contemplate it. And then think about dogs. They're fuzzy...
