This classic and traditional cookie I've been eating for years but believe it or not had never made them till this summer as a request for my friend Tynesha's son KaDale's graduation party 2014.

3/4 c peanut butter, (reese's or jif)
1/3 c sugar
1/3 c sugar, light or dark brown & packed
1 large egg
2 Tbsp milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 c all purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
additional granulated sugar for rolling

Steps:

  • 1. While watching a show sit down and unwrap those sweet kisses and place in a bowl for cookie making time. Set oven to 375.
  • 2. Get out a large bowl and beat together shortening and peanut butter.
  • 3. Add both your sugars and mix till fluffy.
  • 4. Add your egg, vanilla and milk and mix again. Now it's time to gradually(about 3/4 cup at a time) add your baking soda, salt and flour to the mixture. Blend well.
  • 5. Now you are ready to roll. Scoop out dough and shape into 1 inch balls and then roll in the granulated sugar and place on cookie sheet.
  • 6. Bake 8 to 10 minutes....I take mine out as soon as I see a few cracks on the side of the cookies which is 8 to 9 minutes. Immediately remove from oven and place your kisses down in the center firmly but gently and quickly. Once you add the kiss the cookies crack on the sides a little but that's what they are supposed to do. Remove from pan on to a cooling rack. ---- I do not grease cookie pans anymore but ALWAYS USE parchment paper.
