Ingredients
  

Wet Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
Topping
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar for rolling
  • 24 chocolate kisses unwrapped

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a large bowl, beat together the peanut butter, butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2–3 minutes).
  3. Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix until fully incorporated.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients and mix just until combined.
  5. Shape tablespoon-sized dough into balls, roll in granulated sugar, and place 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 8–10 minutes until the edges are set and the tops look puffed but still soft.
  7. 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.
