Description

These Peanut Butter Kiss Cookies are a classic holiday treat that’s easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. They’re soft, chewy, and perfectly complemented by the chocolate kiss in the center.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 large egg
  • 18 milk chocolate candy kisses, unwrapped

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prep: Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Make Dough: Stir sugar, peanut butter, and egg together in a mixing bowl until well combined.
  3. Shape Cookies: Shape dough into 1-inch balls. If the dough is too sticky, refrigerate until easy to handle, about 30 minutes.
  4. Bake: Place dough balls on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake in the preheated oven until edges are set, about 10 minutes.
  5. Add Kisses: Press a chocolate kiss into the center of each warm cookie. Remove to a wire rack to cool.
  6. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Peanut Butter: Use creamy peanut butter for best results.
  • Chilling Dough: If the dough is too sticky to handle, chill it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before shaping.
  • Baking Time: Keep a close eye on the cookies while they bake, as baking times may vary slightly depending on your oven.
  • Cooling: Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack before storing.
