This is my own take on peanut butter blossoms, a favorite cookie... I played with this recipe for a while and think I have mastered it. The key to my cookies is all-natural peanut butter, it really makes a difference!

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup natural creamy peanut butter

  • cup white sugar, or to taste, divided

  • ½ cup unsalted butter

  • ½ cup packed brown sugar

  • 1 egg

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  • ¾ teaspoon baking soda

  • ½ teaspoon baking powder

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • 24 milk chocolate candy kisses (such as Hershey's Kisses®), or to taste

Directions

  1. Beat peanut butter, 1/2 cup white sugar, butter, and brown sugar together in a bowl until creamy. Beat in egg and vanilla extract until combined.

  2. Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Stir into the peanut butter mixture. Refrigerate dough for at least 1 hour.

  3. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  4. Roll dough into 1-inch balls. Roll in remaining white sugar to coat. Place on baking sheets about 2 inches apart.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until cracks form on the surface of the cookies, about 10 minutes. Remove from oven and place a milk chocolate kiss in the center of each cookie, pressing down gently. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
