Cap’n Crunch Peanut Butter Cookie Stackers

Wahoo, it’s Thursday already!! Hope everyone is havingย  a great week ๐Ÿ™‚

Does everyone else have kids who BEG for all the sugary cereal like mine do?! It is a constant battle with my two ๐Ÿ™‚ย  We don’t buy it all the time, but I caved in last week and picked up some good ol’ Cap’n Crunch. Before my boys devoured the entire box within a day, I created a cookie with bits of Cap’n Crunch inside! Can I just say these are so crazy good. I typically get rid of all my goodies after I sample, but holy cow I had at least a half dozen of these. I love the little crispy bits of Cap’n Crunch in each bite of cookie. Just wait till you try these ๐Ÿ™‚

Hope you all enjoy!!
