I’m sure a lot of you have seen these cookies before at Holiday events or on some Christmas cookie platter. It’s a really fun recipe to make and even kids could do this. They take no time at all to prep. It doesn't matter if the cookies come out perfect at the end because you just stick a Reese's cup in them anyways when they come out warm.
