A Classic Favorite

Peanut Blossoms are an age old Christmas favorite. I forget how much I like them until I eat one in December. I wanted to share this great recipe with you. I've tried the one in the Better Homes and Garden cookbook (you know the red and white checkered one that everyone thinks is the Betty Crocker cook book) and it's just not as good. These stay nice and soft, which I love!

Peanut Blossoms

Cream together in mixer bowl:

1/2 C butter

1/2 C peanut butter

1/2 C sugar

1/2 C brown sugar

Add:
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla
Sift in dry ingredients:
1 3/4 C flour
1 t baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Roll into one inch balls. Roll in granulated sugar. Bake at 350 for 8 minutes. Place a Hershey Kiss in the center of each cookie immediately after removing from oven.
