Peanut Butter Bee's (or Bunnies)

My friend Wendy makes these ADORABLE little treats that I just HAD to share with you.

Here's what Wendy said when I asked her about her

Peanut Butter Bee's

"I got this recipe from a friend several years ago. I made the bees for my niece's 8th birthday as a surprise and they went over big time! I also made them bunnies by using the almonds as ears instead of wings. They're still the cutest as bees. I also double the recipe because everyone loves them! "

Peanut Butter Bees

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
2 Tbl butter/margarine softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/3 cup sliced almonds, toasted if desired
Black gel icing in tube

In mixing bowl, cream peanut butter, butter and sugar until smooth. Add crumbs and mix well. Shape teaspoons of dough into 1 inch ovals and place on waxed paper lined cookie sheet. Pipe two or three stripes on each bee, insert two almonds for winds and use a toothpick to poke holes for eyes. Store in refrigerator.
