Peanut Butter Blossom Cookies are some of my favorite holiday cookies. They are so simple to make, but so good! And every time I have thing, it just reminds me of Christmas! The recipe is listed below (:

Peanut Butter Blossoms

Ingredients 

48 Hershey's Kisses                
1/2 cup shortening
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
2 tbsp milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
Additional sugar

Directions: 

1) Heat oven to 375* and remove wrappers from chocolates

2) Beat shortening and peanut butter in large bowl until well blended. Add both sugars and beat until fluffy. Add egg, milk, and vanilla; beat well. Stir together flour, baking soda and salt in separate bowl. Gradually beat into peanut butter mix.

3) Shape dough into 1" balls. Roll in sugar; place on ungreased cookie sheet

4) Bake 8 - 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Immediately press a chocolate kiss into center of each cookie. Cookie will crack around the edges. Remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely.
