PEANUT BUTTER & JELLY THUMBS
I had a bake set when I was a child. It included some recipes and my favourite was this peanut butter and jelly thumb print cookie. I lost the recipe, but I remember the cookie, and these taste just like it. They are also quite easy to make. You just need a bowl, spatula, and some measuring spoons.
