Description

Classic, nostalgic cookies with a delightful combination of peanut butter and chocolate kisses.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1 egg
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Chocolate kisses for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Beat together the peanut butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and butter until creamy.
  3. Add in the egg and vanilla extract, mixing well until combined.
  4. Gradually add the flour and baking soda, mixing until just combined.
  5. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  6. Bake for around 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden.
  7. Press a chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie immediately after removing them from the oven.
  8. Cool on the baking sheet for a few moments before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Chill the dough for 30 minutes if it’s too sticky. For extra flavor, add a pinch of cinnamon or sea salt before baking.
