* Rosebuds are a Canadian candy; Hershey kisses can be substituted. "My sister tasted this when she was teaching at the Toronto School for the Deaf. The kids made them for a birthday party. Although they only have a few ingredients and are easy to make, the look adorable and taste great." Anne's note: She called these cookies; I've renamed tghem candy as I feel they're really a candy.

Cream peanut butter with icing sugar. Beat in eggs. Form batter into 1 inch balls. Place on cookie sheets that are buttered are lined with parchment paper. Flatten balls so that they are about 2 inches in diameter. Place a chocolare rosebud or kiss in the centre of each.

Bake in a preheated 375 oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until cookies are firm enough to handle when one is removed from the oven and place on the cooling rack.
