Ingredients
Dough
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter softened
- 0.5 cup creamy peanut butter
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1.75 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Finish
- 36 Hershey’s Kisses unwrapped
- additional granulated sugar for rolling
Instructions
Dough
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 1–2 minutes.
- Add the egg and vanilla, mixing until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the peanut butter mixture and stir just until a dough forms.
Assembly & Baking
- Roll dough into 1-inch balls, then roll each ball in additional granulated sugar.
- Place balls 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets and bake for 8–10 minutes, until edges are set and cookies are lightly golden.
- Immediately press a Hershey’s Kiss into the center of each cookie. Let cookies rest on the baking sheet for 2 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
