Peanut butter blossoms are a fun take on a classic treat. Blossoms are a fun dessert that are easy to prepare and even easier to eat. They are basically little cookies with a dollop of filling placed on top in their center. The filling in this case is peanut butter, but you can change the filling to the substance of your choice, although you will surely regret not using peanut butter as it tastes amazing.
