I love these cookies! They are so easy to make and create a soft, chewy and delicious tasting cookies! They are my favorite cookie to make (and eat) at Christmas time but I not only make them during the holidays. I make sure to make these a few times a year.
The Very Best Peanut Butter Kiss Blossoms
1 & 3/4 c. flour
3/4 c. creamy peanut butter
1/2 c. sugar, (plus a bit more for rolling the cookies in before baking)
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. shortening
48 Hershey's kisses, unwrapped
1 egg
2 T. milk
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
NOTE: If you do not want to use shortening in the recipe, you can substitute it out with real butter. But using shortening will allow your cookie to stay soft and chewy.
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, mix all the ingredients (except for the kisses) together. Mix well until a dough is formed.
Shape the dough into 1" balls and roll each ball in sugar. Place each ball about 2" on an un-greased cookie sheet.
Bake for 10-11 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and immediately top each cookie with a Kiss candy. Place the Kiss in the center and gently press down.
I always eat one (or two) of the cookies while they are warm but you can also allow the cookies to cool before eating. The Kiss candy will harden as they cool.
Some other cookie recipes that I am sure you will love include: Old Fashioned Soft Pumpkin Cookies, Easy Mexican Wedding Cookies and Classic Sugar Cookies!
