Peanut Blossoms

Many of my friends throughout the years have said their favorite Christmas Cookie is the Peanut Blossom, so I thought I would share my recipe this year. Over the weekend I made this cookie with a special little helper, Cameron. It is the perfect cookie to make with little ones because they love  every single step from the measuring and mixing down to the kiss!
 
1 3/4 cup Flour
1 tsp. Baking Soda
1/2 tsp. Salt
1/2 cup Butter
1/2 cup Peanut Butter
3/4 cup Sugar
3/4 cup Brown Sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. Vanilla
48 chocolate kisses
 
Step 1. Mix together all dry ingredients.
Step 2. Mix together Butter, sugar, egg, peanut butter, and vanilla.
Step 3. Slowly combine the two, stirring gently. Form into one inch balls.
 
Step 5. Place on ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 8 minutes at 350 degrees.
Step 6. While the cookies bake unwrap the chocolate kisses!
Step 7. Remove from oven and place on parchment paper.
