For todays Light the World project we are making these yummy cookies. They are our family's favorite cookie during the Holiday season. They are called Peanut Butter Blossom cookies with a Hershey Kiss in the middle. I found these cute cookie designs via cookdairy.com that a very clever person added to make them even more festive! Really, how cute are those Hershey Kisses Christmas trees!?
Here is the recipe we like to use:
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter, slightly softened
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla
Hershey’s Kisses
- ~Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- ~Sift flour, soda and salt with a wire whisk and set aside.
- ~Beat butter and peanut butter
- ~Add sugar and beat until fluffy.
- ~Add egg and vanilla.
- ~Add flour mixture and combine.
- ~Roll dough into 1 to 1-1/2 inch balls and then roll the balls in sugar to coat.
For Peanut Butter Kisses:
- Place rolled balls on parchment paper covered baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and press an unwrapped Hershey’s Kisses candy into the center of each cookie.
- Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
