PILLSBURY PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES WITH HERSHEY KISSES RECIPES

Steps:

• In large mixing bowl, combine the 1/2 cup granulated sugar, brown sugar, peanut butter, butter and egg. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until well mixed.
• By hand, stir in flour, baking soda and baking powder until just combined and a dough forms.
• Scoop and shape dough into 1-inch balls. Roll each dough ball in additional granulated sugar to coat. Place on ungreased cookie sheets, about 2 inches apart.
• Bake at 375℉ for 8 to 10 minutes, or until edges are just starting to turn light golden brown.
• Remove pan from oven and immediately place a Hershey's Kiss in the center of each cookie, pressing down just slightly until crinkles/cracks just start to appear in the cookie's surface.
• Remove to a cooling rack to cool completely.
• I use a cookie scoop to scoop the dough, which makes it really easy to keep the cookies all about the same size.
• The dough will be a little crumbly. Squeeze the dough in the palm of your hand, if needed, to form it into balls.
• After placing Hershey's Kisses in the center of the cookies, don't touch the Kisses again until the cookies are completely cooled. The Kisses do melt (and glisten!) from the heat of the cookies, but keep their shape. If you touch the Kisses at this point, their shape will warp or smush.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375° and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper. In small bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, and salt until combined.  In a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat butter and peanut butter until smooth. Add sugars and beat until light in color and fluffy. Beat in egg, then add milk and vanilla and mix until combined. Gradually add flour mixture, stirring on low, until just combined.  Roll a tablespoonful of cookie dough into a ball, then roll in sugar. Place on baking sheet and repeat with remaining dough, spacing cookies at least 2” apart.  Bake until cookies have poofed and no longer look raw, about 8 to 10 minutes. (They won’t brown!) Immediately top with Hershey Kisses before serving.
