Description

These Peanut Butter Blossoms are classic, tender peanut butter cookies topped with a Hershey’s Kiss. Perfect for holiday baking or anytime you’re craving a sweet treat!


Ingredients

Scale

Cookies:

  • ½ cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter
  • ½ cup granulated sugar (plus extra for rolling)
  • ½ cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Topping:

  • 24 Hershey’s Kisses (unwrapped)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cream Ingredients: In a large bowl, cream together the butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla until combined.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
  4. Shape Dough: Scoop and roll dough into 1-inch balls, then roll each in granulated sugar. Place on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
  5. Bake: Bake for 8–10 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden.
  6. Add Kisses: Immediately press a Hershey’s Kiss into the center of each cookie while they’re still warm.
  7. Cool: Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

  • Make sure the cookies are warm, not hot, when adding the chocolate so it sets without melting too much.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
