Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 1 3/4 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup Creamy Peanut Butter
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter (room temperature)
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Light Brown Sugar (lightly packed)
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 2 tbsp Milk
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar (additional for coating cookies)
Toppings
  • 11 oz Bag of Hershey Kisses

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar. Beat until light and fluffy.
  4. Stir in the egg, milk, and vanilla extract until well blended.
  5. Gradually add the dry mixture to the peanut butter blend, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
  6. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and coat them in granulated sugar. Place them on a lined baking sheet, spacing 2 inches apart.
Baking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden.
  2. Remove from oven and immediately press a Hershey's Kiss into the center of each cookie.
  3. Allow cookies to cool on the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For best results, use room temperature ingredients. Chill the dough for a thicker cookie and do not overbake.
