  • Okay, peanut butter blossoms will never be totally healthy. First, they are a cookie; second, you put a piece of delicious chocolate on top. However, I made a little bit healthier version of them. The Imaginative One has a list of his favorite cookies. The top three are Snickerdoodles, Chocolate Chip, and Peanut Butter Blossoms.…
