Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, granulated sugar, packed brown sugar, large egg, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth.
Scoop out tablespoon-sized balls of dough and place them spaced 2 inches apart on the baking sheet.
Bake for 10 minutes until the edges are golden brown and centers remain soft.
Immediately press a chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie after baking.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
