Peanut Butter Cookies and a Free Holiday Printable

I know peanut butter cookies don’t exactly scream Christmas, but they’re my husband’s favourite and I wanted to share my recipe!  Included with this post is a free “Send Joy” printable to help make your gift giving more festive!

While I think the printable tag looks cute with cookies, I think it would also look great with a loaf!  Maybe banana bread?  If you’re not too keen on peanut butter cookies, you might want to consider these holiday favorites of ours:

• Ginger Crinkles
• Oreo Truffles
• Whipped Shortbread
• Homemade Marshmallows
