Ok this one is really easy. You can find this recipe anywhere. But just in case you want to know MY thoughts....which few do...well here, ya go.
For each batch:
1/3 cup white sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup powdered sugar
1 egg
1 cup peanut butter
18 Hershey's Kisses (actually, I'd figure closer to 23)
Preheat oven to 350F. Mix sugars, egg, and peanut butter. Roll into one inch balls (maybe my balls were small, I didn't actually measure), and bake on a cookie sheet for 10mins.
When they come out of the oven, stick a Kiss in the center of each cookie, let them cool, and then remove from the sheet.
Other thoughts:
I made a triple batch so...a cup of each sugar, 3 eggs, 3 cups pb (which was just about a 28ounce jar), and supposedly a bag of Hershey's kisses would have been more than enough. But It wasn't I had about ten without kisses. So sad. So tasty. So delicious.
While the cookies are baking unwrap the Kisses. Supposedly you can buy these without the wrappers but I was not about to go on a while goose chase for such a thing. The time driving and the increase in cost per bag. So just be smart and unwrap them ahead of time!
I used Kisses with meltaway centers. I knew there would be consequences but it just sounded too good to pass up. I stuck the cookies in the fridge and let them sit there an hour before I touched them. If I had unwrapped the first batch ahead of time they might be standing a little taller but really they look fine and taste GOOD.
After I was done I saw a recipe on the back of the package to make brownie bites with meltaway Kisses. The instructions were to put the Kisses in the freezer before making the dough. Now THAT would have been smart!
There's a world of possibilities out there. Some people use crunchy peanut butter. I'd like to make chocolate cookies and put mint kisses in the center... Mmmm.
Really simple, good for kids to make, and a holiday favorite in many homes.
