🍪How to make Peanut Butter Blossom Cookies
💛Start with wet items...softened butter, egg, vanilla extract, add sugars, and blend well in a mixer.
💛Blend together flour, baking soda, and baking powder in a bowl.
💛Stir dry ingredients into wet ingredients until dough forms. Chill dough for 20 minutes.
💛Scoop dough with a cookie scoop or ice cream scoop. Shape dough into 1-inch balls; roll in additional granulated sugar.
💛On an ungreased or parchment-lined cookie sheet, place cookie balls about 2 inches apart.
💛Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until the edges are light golden brown. Immediately press 1 milk chocolate candy in the center of each cookie. Remove from cookie sheets to a cooling rack.
🥜Peanut Butter Blossom Cookie Tips
- Dark or light brown sugar: Dark brown sugar is what I prefer for this recipe, dark brown sugar provides a richer flavor
- Hershey Kisses: I freeze Kisses for 30 minutes before topping the cookie.
- Storing: You can store cookies for up to 4 days in an airtight container.
- Freezing: Baked cookies will be kept in the freezer for up to 3 or 4 weeks. After baking, allow the cookies to cool completely. Place them in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet to freeze them, then store them in a freezer-safe zip-top storage bag labeled with the name and date
- Cookie Size: I make 2 sizes, thumbprint size of about a 1-inch ball of dough, or a standard size cookie which is about 1 1/2 inch dough ball. The first picture above shows the thumbprint size.
