Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 36 milk chocolate kisses, unwrapped
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or lightly grease them.
- In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the peanut butter, softened butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spaced about 2 inches apart. Gently flatten each ball with the bottom of a glass that has been dipped in sugar.
- Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
- Immediately after removing the cookies from the oven, press a chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie, creating the paw print shape.
- Transfer the cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
