Bumble Bee Cookies




Source of Recipe


Internet


List of Ingredients




1 1/2 cups crushed graham crackers (1 packet, about 10 crackers)
1 cup smooth peanut butter, room temperature
1/4 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup dry milk powder (substitute wheat germ for milk allergies)
1/3 cup chocolate chips (or 2-ounce square semisweet chocolate)
1/3 cup sliced almonds



Recipe



Crush the graham crackers in the food processor and set aside.

In large mixing bowl, beat the peanut butter, butter, powdered sugar, and dry milk until smooth. Stir in the crushed graham crackers. Shape the mixture into 1-inch ovals about the size of a thumb to make the "bumble bee body." Set them on waxed paper.

Insert a sliced almond on each side for "wings."

Place the chocolate chips (or simi-sweet chocolate square) in a microwave safe plastic storage bag. Heat the chips in the microwave for approximately 20 seconds, or until melted. Snip one lower corner of the bag and drizzle 3 to 4 stripes on the back of each "bumble bee." Store the cookies at room temperature in air-tight container. Makes 30 cookies.
