  2                    egg yolks -- ( beat well)

                       cocktail peanuts -- crushed

Mix ingredients. Beat well. Form small balls about the size of a
level teaspoon. Bake on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 375  12-15
minutes. Let cool. Put in a ROUND toothpick in the center. Makes 90
mini cookies.

Melt caramels in milk in double boiler. Do not use regular pans as
the caramel will get hard. Dip the bottom half of cookies in
caramels. Then dip into fine peanuts. Place into mini paper cups.
(1-3/4 inch size) Serve or freeze. These are adorable! Leslie

NOTE: These little cookies look just like mini taffy apples. They
look really cute on a plate for fall company or in mini cupcake
liners for school open house.
