Directions
- Preheat oven to 375F
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cream butter, sugars, peanut butter, egg, and Rodelle Pure Vanilla Extract together in an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat until fluffy and lightened in color (about 3 minutes).
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Add the dry mix to the butter mixture beat on low speed until the dough is formed.
- While dough is forming, add some granulated sugar to a small bowl
- Once dough is formed, scoop balls with a small cookie scoop (~1 teaspoon), and roll into balls.
- Roll each ball in granulated sugar, and set on the prepped baking sheet a few inches apart.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, checking to see cookies are golden brown on top, evenly spread out, and beginning to crack.
- After cookies have finished baking, transfer to a wire cooling rack and immediately place one Hershey Kiss in the center of each cookie, gently pressing to ensure they don't move.
- Let cookies cool to room temperature before enjoying.
Optional:
Cookies can be made without rolling in sugar. Instead, once dough has been rolled into balls, place directly onto the prepped baking sheet.
