"You've never seen Easter eggs quite like this! "

Total Time: 23 Minutes, Servings: 8 Servings

Ingredients :

Peanut Butter Sugar Cookies
• ½ cup butter, softened
• ⅓ cup Peanut Butter (or try Reese's Chocolate Peanut butter Spread)
• ½ cup white sugar
• ½ cup brown sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1¾ cup flour
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ¼ teaspoon salt
Icing
• 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
• 1 tbsp milk
• 2 tsp light corn syrup
• 1/2 tsp vanilla or flavor extract of choice

Instructions :

Cookies
• Preheat the oven to 350F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a large mixing bowl, whip the butter and peanut butter until it is fluffy.
• Add the sugar and brown sugar.
• Beat in the egg and vanilla.
• Slowly add in flour, baking soda and salt and mix until well incorporated.
• Roll the dough out on a floured surface until it reaches 1/4" in thickness.
• Using cookie cutters, cut out the cookies.
• Bake for approximately 8 minutes.
• Repeat the process until all of the dough has been used up.
• Let cookies cool for 5 minutes and then transfer to a cooling rack. Allow to cool completely before icing.
Icing
• Combine powdered sugar and milk in a medium bowl and beat with a hand mixer until no lumps remain.
• Add the light corn syrup and flavor extract and mix for another minute. If the consistency is either too thick or thin, you can add water by the drop to thin it out, or add more powdered sugar to thicken it. You'll know you've achieved the correct consistency when you are able to drizzle some icing on a cookie or wax paper and it holds it shape for 10 seconds before spreading out.
• If you are going to use different colors, divide the icing between multiple bowls and add food coloring until you reach the shade you desire.
• We added some edible pearlized sugar beads, but the decorating options are endless.
