Peanut Butter Heart Cookies

Valentine’s Day is tomorrow! If you have a sweet tooth like me, these peanut butter heart cookies are the perfect way to celebrate. I love the peanut butter and chocolate combo and these Hershey’s hearts will literally melt in your mouth. You may have seen a similar version of these cookies with a Hershey’s Kiss, but with the hearts, you get some chocolate in every bite. These cookies are great for a girl’s night, to take to the office, or as a sweet treat after dinner. Enjoy and Happy Valentine’s Day! xoxo
