Share:
Ingredients
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar packed
- ½ cup creamy peanut butter
- ½ cup butter softened
- 1 egg
- 1 ½ cups all purpose flour
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- granulated sugar for rolling dough
- 36 chocolate stars or Hershey Kisses
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a large mixing bowl beat together granulated sugar, brown sugar, peanut butter, butter and egg with a stand mixer or hand mixer on medium speed until well blended.
- Stir in the flour, baking soda and baking powder to cookie dough until just combined.
- Shape dough into 1-inch balls, roll in additional granulated sugar and place on ungreased cookie sheets about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes in a preheated oven or until edges or light golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and immediately press 1 chocolate star into the center of each cookie. Let cool for 2-3 minutes.
- Remove from cookie sheets and place on the cooling rack.
Notes
- Storage TipsWait to store the cookies until they are completely cooled.
- Room Temperature: Place the cookies in an airtight container. Separate the layers with wax paper – this will keep them from sticking together. They will keep well for three to four days.Freezer: Stack the baked cookies in a freezer-container with parchment paper or wax paper separating the layers. They will keep well for up three months. Thaw them at room temperature.

- Recipe Tips
- Mixing: When you add the dry ingredients, don’t overmix. Stir long enough, so the flour mixture is absorbed and the dough forms. If you overmix, your cookies won’t be as soft.
- Baking: These cookies don’t need long to bake, so be sure to keep an eye on them. Take them out of the oven once the edges are golden. If you overbake them, your cookies won’t be as soft and chewy.
- Chocolate Candy: Don’t wait to add the candy – it works best to press them into the cookies while they are still hot. Once you’ve placed the cookies, leave them on the pan for a few minutes to set. That way, when you move them, they won’t fall apart.
- There are tons of Hershey Kisses to choose from, so try different flavors like dark chocolate, milk chocolate, or vanilla-chocolate.
- Instead of a kiss, press a mini peanut butter cup in the center.Rolos or other chocolate caramel candy are fun, too!
- I like the sugar coating, but you could also roll them in sprinkles to make them festive.
