Peanut Blossoms

Ingredients

1 3/4 cup All Purpose or Unbleached Flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup peanut butter
2 tbsp milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 egg
Granulated sugar
48 Hershey Kisses, unwrapped

Instructions

(makes about 4 dozen cookies). Preheat oven to 375 degrees Farhenheit. Combine the flour, the 1/2 cup granulated sugar, the brown sugar, baking soda, salt, shortening, peanut butter, milk, vanilla, and egg in a large bowl at a low speed until a stiff dough forms. Shape into 1-inch balls; roll each ball in granulated sugar. Place the balls 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown. Remove the cookie sheets from the oven and immediately top each cookie with a chocolate kiss, pressing down firmly so the cookie cracks around the edge. Remove the cookies to wire racks to cool.
