Scale

Cookie Ingredients

  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 36 chocolate kisses, unwrapped

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the cookies.
  2. Mix Dough: In a large bowl, combine the peanut butter, sugar, egg, and baking soda until a smooth dough forms.
  3. Shape Cookies: Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on an ungreased baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
  4. Bake: Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned.
  5. Add Chocolate Kisses: Immediately after removing the cookies from the oven, press an unwrapped chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie, gently flattening it.
  6. Cool Down: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for several minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For best results, do not overbake the cookies; they should remain soft.
  • Use creamy peanut butter for a smoother texture, or chunky for added crunch.
  • Chocolate kisses can be substituted with any small chocolate candy or chips if desired.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
