Ingredients
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup shortening
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup honey
1 egg
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
8 dozen pretzel twists
8 dozen pretzel sticks
Beat peanut butter, shortening, brown sugar, honey and egg in large
bowl with electric mixer on medium speed, or mix with spoon. Stir in
flour, baking soda and baking powder. Cover dough with plastic wrap
and refrigerate about 2 hours or until firm.
Preparation Method
Heat oven to 350º. Shape dough into 1-inch balls (dough will be
slightly sticky). For each cookie, place 2 pretzel twists side by side with
the bottoms (the bottom comes to a rounded point, similar to the
bottom of a heart shape ) touching on ungreased cookie sheet. Place 1
ball of dough on center, and flatten slightly. Break 2 pretzel sticks in
half. Gently press 3 pretzel stick halves into dough for stripes on bee.
Break fourth pretzel piece in half. Poke pieces into 1 end of dough for
antennae.
Bake 11 to 13 minutes or until light golden brown. Immediately
remove from cookie sheet to wire rack.
