Peanut Butter Kiss Cookies

 

This is an old family favorite from the kitchen of Leila Boddicker. I believe the original recipe probably came straight from Hershey. Nothing says, “Happy Holidays,” quite like a warm kiss cookie with milk.

Cream together:

• ½ cup butter (no substitutions)
• ¾ cup all-natural peanut butter

Add to the above:

•  1/3 cup white sugar
• 1/3 cup brown sugar
• 1 egg
• 2 tbs. milk
• 1 tsp. vanilla

Add dry ingredients to the above mixture:

• 1 ½ cup flour
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• ½ tsp. salt

The mixture should stick together pretty well and pull away from the sides of the bowl. If it does not, add a touch more flour so that you can easily work with the dough.

Roll the dough into balls and place on cookie sheet. Bake at 365 degrees for 10 minutes or until cracks form on the top of the cookies.

Immediately place one Hershey’s Chocolate Kiss in the center of each cookie while they are still warm.
