If you're looking for a classic holiday cookie that will impress your friends and family, look no further than the iconic Peanut Blossom Cookie. This timeless treat has been a staple on Christmas cookie trays for decades, and for good reason. The combination of rich, buttery cookie dough and a sweet and creamy chocolate kiss on top is simply irresistible. Plus, they are easy to make and perfect for baking with kids. Here is a tried and true recipe that will have everyone begging for more.
To start, preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 and 3/4 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Set aside.
In a separate larger bowl, cream together 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, 1/2 cup of creamy peanut butter, 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup of brown sugar until light and fluffy. Then, beat in 1 egg, 2 tablespoons of milk, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until well combined.
Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each ball. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Immediately after removing from the oven, press a Hershey's Kiss into the center of each cookie. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
