Peanut Butter Blossoms

We make these peanut butter blossoms every year for our annual cookie open house. We make about 15 to 20 different kinds of cookies and have a four-hour open house with friends. We then prepare cookie trays to take to shut-ins and freeze the rest to enjoy all year long!

Ingredient:

  • 1 cup shortening

  • 1 cup peanut butter

  • 1 cup packed brown sugar

  • 1 ½ cups white sugar, divided

  • 2 large eggs

  • ¼ cup milk

  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

  • 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  • 2 teaspoons baking soda

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 2 (9 ounce) bags milk chocolate candy kisses, unwrapped

Recipe Direction :

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.

  2. Cream together shortening, peanut butter, brown sugar, and 1 cup white sugar in a large bowl until smooth.

  3. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in milk and vanilla.

  4. Combine flour, baking soda, and salt; stir into peanut butter mixture until well blended.

  5. Shape spoonfuls of dough into balls and roll in remaining 1/2 cup white sugar. Place cookies 2 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets.

  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and immediately press a chocolate kiss into each cookie.

  7. Allow to cool completely; the kiss will harden as it cools.
