Parshas Vayechi - Paw Print Peanutbutter Cookies

In Parshas Vayechi Yaakov gives brachos to all of his sons before he dies. Many of the sons are compared to an animal. Yehuda a lion, Binyomin a wolf, Issachar a donkey.Naphtali a deer. I made paw print cookies for all the animals!

Recipe:

1 1/2 cups flour

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar

1 egg 

1 stick margarine

1 cup peanut butter 

3/4 tsp baking soda

peanuts 

chocolate 

Preheat oven to 375. Mix everything together except for the peanuts and chocolate. Roll cookies into balls and place on cookie sheets. Make a thumbprint in each cookie. Place halved peanuts with the rounded side down in to the cookies. I put three in each but you can put more if you would like. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the bottoms are slightly brown. Allow cookies to cool. For the center of the paw I just melted some chocolate and using a piping bag I made a chocolate circle on each cookie!
