Hershey'S Peanut Blossom Cookie Recipe

Peanut butter blossoms are soft and tender peanut butter cookies topped with milk chocolate Hershey’s kisses. They are undeniably adorable, a breeze to make, and sinfully good. For best results, use “regular” peanut butter, like Skippy, as opposed to all-natural peanut butter. Regular peanut butter is creamy and thick, and also contains salt and sugar—it makes much better cookies. Also, don’t skip the last step of baking the cookies with the Hershey’s kisses for a few minutes. Most peanut butter blossom recipes don’t call for this step, but in testing the recipe, I found that baking the kiss-topped cookies for a few minutes stabilizes the chocolate so that it keeps its perfect shape and smooth finish.

If you enjoy peanut butter blossoms, or are just a chocolate-peanut butter devotee, add my buckeyes (chocolate-dipped peanut butter bonbons named after the nut of the Ohio state tree) and chocolate peanut butter icebox cake to your baking bucket list.

In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or beaters, beat the butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar, and the vanilla on medium speed until well combined, about 1 minute.

Mix on low speed until just combined, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary. Refrigerate the dough for about 1 hour, or until firm enough to roll.

Return the cookies to the oven and bake until the cookies are golden and the chocolate is glossy, 2 to 3 minutes more.

Repeat with the remaining cookie dough, storing the dough in the refrigerator between batches. Store the cookies in a single layer in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

These Peanut Butter Blossom Cookies are soft and chewy with a nice textural element from the sugar outside. They’re really delicious and look so pretty on a cookie platter. Here’s what you’ll need:

The base of this recipe is chilled peanut butter cookie dough, which is formed into balls, rolled into sugar, then baked. Once they come out of the oven, you press a chocolate Hershey’s Kiss in the center. The dough surrounds the candy and holds it in place. As the cookies cool, the chocolate gets firm again.

Make Ahead: You can make the cookie dough up to 3 days in advance of using it, stored in the refrigerator, covered.

For optimal results, you’ll want to use traditional creamy peanut butter for these cookies. There’s too much oil in natural peanut butters, which makes the consistency less than ideal and the cookies spread too much.
