Are these not the cutest little cookies?! These little deers are ideal for getting the kiddos involved. They have a pretty subtle peanut butter flavor, so feel free to decorate away! If you can believe it, we weren't able to find the red gumdrops called for in the recipe, so used dried cranberries instead. We were pleased...
