Ingredients

Scale
  • 13/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon table salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (extra for rolling)
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
  • 3/4 cup smooth peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 40 to 42 milk chocolate kisses, unwrapped

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set this mixture aside.
  2. In a mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter until smooth.
  3. Add the 1/2 cup granulated sugar and the light brown sugar, then cream together until fluffy.
  4. Mix in the peanut butter, then add the milk, vanilla extract, and the egg, blending until everything is well combined.
  5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until a stiff dough forms. Refrigerate the dough for 30-60 minutes for easier handling.
  6. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  7. Roll the chilled dough into 1-1/4 inch balls and coat them in the extra granulated sugar.
  8. Place the cookie dough balls on ungreased baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly browned.
  10. Immediately after removing from the oven, press a chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie.
  11. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.

Notes

Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. For longer storage, refrigerate for up to two weeks or freeze for up to three months.
