Mouse Cookies

3 cups Flour
1/2 cup cocoa
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/4 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 large egg
2 tsp vanilla

Mix flour, cocoa and salt together. In a large mixing bowl, beat butter and sugars until fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla and then the flour mixture until well blended. Cover and chill an hour or until firm. Heat oven to 350, have a non-greased cookie sheet ready.Roll the dough into teardrop shape and use a toothpick to drill a hole in the mouse's rear end. Use peanuts for the ears and mini chocolate chips for the eyes. Bake the cookies at 350 degrees for 9 minutes (or until they are no longer shiny...they need to look kind of dry). Let the cookies cool for a few minutes and then put the pull and peel Twizzler in the hole.
