  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter softened
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar packed
  • ½ cup peanut butter creamy or chunky
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 –3 tbsp granulated sugar for rolling
  • 24 chocolate kisses unwrapped

Method
 

Preheat Oven & Prep
  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Make the Dough
  1. In a bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, beat butter, sugars, peanut butter, egg, and vanilla until smooth. Gradually add flour mixture until combined.
Form & Roll Cookies
  1. Roll dough into 1-inch balls. Roll in granulated sugar and place on baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart.
Bake
  1. Bake 10–12 minutes until edges are lightly golden but centers are soft.
Top with Chocolate
  1. Immediately press a chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie while still warm. Let cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

Notes

Make ahead: Dough can be chilled up to 2 days before baking.
Flavor twist: Sprinkle a tiny pinch of sea salt on top of the chocolate kiss for extra contrast.
Storage: Keeps in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
