How to Make Peanut Butter Blossoms
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened shortening, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and ¾ cup packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
- Add 1 cup creamy peanut butter and mix until incorporated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with ¼ cup milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Roll rounded tablespoons of dough into balls.
- Roll each ball in ½ cup granulated sugar.
- Place balls 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden.
- Remove from oven and immediately press a Hershey's Kiss into the center of each cookie, gently pressing until the edges crack.
- Let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
