Time 55m

Yield 48

Number Of Ingredients 11

¾ cup peanut butter
½ cup shortening
⅓ cup white sugar
⅓ cup light brown sugar
1 egg
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 (8 ounce) package milk chocolate candy kisses (such as Hershey's Kisses®), unwrapped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Beat peanut butter and shortening together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy; add white sugar and brown sugar and beat until fluffy. Add egg, milk, and vanilla extract to creamed mixture and beat until smooth.
  • Mix flour, baking soda, and salt together in a separate bowl; gradually beat into the creamed mixture until dough is just mixed. Shape dough into 1-inch balls and arrange on a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cookies are lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Immediately press a chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool.
