Peanut Butter Blossom Cookies
Peanut Butter Blossom Cookies have become such a classic, especially at Christmas and they came about by accident!

They’ve become kind of a highlight for me, just a minute or two of reading editor Sam Sifton talk about food. One of the food items he mentioned recently was German Chocolate Cookies.
