Peanut Butter Blossoms

🧂 Ingredients

• ½ cup sugar

  (+ ⅓ cup additional sugar to roll the dough balls in)
• ½ cup light brown sugar

  (packed)
• ½ cup butter

  (softened, at room temperature)
• ½ cup creamy peanut butter
• 1 large egg

  (at room temperature)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ¾ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 36 Hershey's Kisses

  (roughly 36 milk chocolate candies, unwrapped)

Instructions

• 1 Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
  or a silicone baking mat.
• 2 In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of your stand mixer, cream together the
  sugar, brown sugar, and butter. Add the peanut butter and mix it into the
  sugars.
• 3 Mix in the egg and vanilla extract then add the baking soda and baking powder.
  Once the wet ingredients are fully combined, add the all-purpose flour and mix
  until your dough forms.
• 4 Place the additional sugar in a shallow bowl or dish. Portion dough and roll it
  into 1-inch balls then roll through the granulated sugar to coat completely.
  Place onto your prepared baking sheet(s) with 2 inches of spacing between the
  cookies.
• 5 Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 8-10 minutes or until the bottoms of the cookies are
  just beginning to turn light golden brown.
• 6 Remove from the oven and immediately top with unwrapped Hershey's Kisses milk
  chocolate candies. Allow the cookies to cool slightly on the baking sheet before
  transferring them to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
