Peanut Butter Blossoms

Peanut Butter Blossoms are peanut butter cookies with a nice chocolate kiss on top. Who doesn’t like a nice chocolate kiss especially when it’s on a cookie? Oh did I mention the peanut butter cookies are rolled in sugar before you bake them? These cookies should come with a warning because they are seriously addictive!

  • Scoop out some dough balls with a cookie scoop and roll the balls and roll them in sugar.
  • Place them 2″ apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Chill them for 10-30 minutes before you bake them. Remember, the warmer the dough the more the cookies will spread.
  • Bake 6-10 minutes at 350° or as soon as you see the edges turning a light brown remove them from the oven.

This batch of cookies will make 35-50 cookies depending on the size you roll them. For the first batch of cookies, I made them larger than these so I made another batch so they would be photo-worthy. I hate we had to make more of these little addictive cookies, but oh we’ll take one for the team. 😉
