The repeatedly-delayed Peanuts Christmas Cookie Set finally exists. It features three cookie cutters: a very-Peanutsy Snoopy head one, an acceptably in the range christmas tree, and, well, a mitten. Accompanying them is a 48 page paperback cookbook of cookie recipes bearing names like “Woodstock’s Gingerbread Cookie Heroes”, “Spike’s Biscochitos Cut-Out Cookies”, …
