Melted hershey kiss topped peanut butter cookies

Part of my hat trick of treats for tomorrow for work – peanut butter cookies topped with hershey kisses.  I sprinkled them with sugar before baking for extra sweetness!

Remember to scoop your flour from your flour bag into your measuring cup so you get the right amount.  I also recommend freezing the individual doughs for a half hour or chilling a few hours to keep them puffy.  And preheat your oven before baking.

  • Ingredients list
  • 1/2 cup butter crisco
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tbs water
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 3/4 cup peanut butter
  • 1 2/3 flour
  • 3/4 tsp baking soda

Directions – in a bowl, cream butter crisco  and brown sugar.  Add eggs, water, vanilla and peanut butter.  Blend in dry ingredients.  Scoop our 1/4 cups dough and sprinkle with sugar.  Freeze a half hour or chill a couple of hours.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.   Stagger cookies on sheet.  Bake 8 to 10 minutes.  Cookies may seem undone on top, but they will firm up as they cool.  You can also pop them in the fridge to firm them up.  I topped these with melted hershey kisses.  You can leave them plain if you want.

Thanks for stopping by!
