Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In a large bowl, beat together the peanut butter, butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2–3 minutes).
- Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix until fully incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients and mix just until combined.
- Shape tablespoon-sized dough into balls, roll in granulated sugar, and place 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 8–10 minutes until the edges are set and the tops look puffed but still soft.
- Immediately press a chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Cookies can be frozen for up to 3 months. For best results, press kisses into cookies immediately after baking.
