Chocolate Peanut Butter Blossoms
These cookies are like little chocolatey hugs with a gooey peanut butter center! With each bite, you’ll experience the perfect balance of smooth chocolate and nutty goodness. Let’s dive into the details!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar (for rolling)
- 36 chocolate kisses (unwrapped, because we’re not patient)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). That’s right, let’s get those ovens fired up!
- In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, 1 cup of granulated sugar, egg, and baking soda. Mix until it’s combined nice and smooth, not unlike a dreamy peanut butter river.
- Roll the dough into 1-inch balls—sizing is key, folks! Roll them in the additional 1/2 cup of sugar like little sugar-coated nuggets from the candy heavens.
- Place these balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, making sure to leave some space between them. They need their personal bubble, after all!
- Bake for about 8-10 minutes. You’ll know they’re ready when they start to puff up and the edges look just a tad golden. But don’t burn the cookies! We’re making sweet treats, not charcoal.
- As soon as they come out of the oven, press a chocolate kiss gently into the center of each cookie. Watch as it melts just enough to put a smile on your face.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Patience is a virtue, my friend!
