- 2 1/4 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt

- 1 cup orange colored vanilla chips (seasonal)
- 36 mini peanut butter cups
- 72 mini sugar eyes

Preheat oven to 350°F.
For the cookies: In a large bowl, using an immersion blender, cream together butter and both sugars until combined. Add two eggs and vanilla. Once completely combined, add baking soda and salt then add flour a little at a time. Scrape down sides of the bowl and mix one last time before folding in both chips.
As soon as the cookies come out of the oven, press a peanut butter cup (top down) into the center of each cookie; let cool. Once cookie is cool, pipe on legs and stick on eyes.
