Peanut Butter Chocolate Kiss Cookies

I tried these cookies from Pam’s For the Love of Cooking blog, and they turned out to be one of the most delicious Peanut Butter cookies I have tried so far! Main attraction of these cookies is the chocolate kisses on top that kids simply love! Try these easy to make Peanut Butter Chocolate Kiss Cookies.

On another note, it was like a dream come true when Foodbuzz community selected my previous post Yogurt Mascarpone & Strawberry Verrine as one of the Top 9 on Dec 15th. The Foodbuzz Top 9 is a photo-driven collection of top-buzzed posts within the Foodbuzz community. And my photo was selected one of the best out of 734 posts! One simple dessert that I whipped up with some left over mascarpone cheese and yogurt not only loved by all three of us but a lot of others too…. A big thank you to Foodbuzz and also all those who visited my blog and took time to leave a comment… I am over whelmed :)

  4. I've been making these cookies for many, many years. Just fyi, you can skip chilling the dough, flattening the cookies down and putting them back into the oven after you put the kisses on.

    They'll flatten out naturally and the heat from the cookies will melt the kisses enough for them to stick to the cookies.

    Not chilling the dough seems to have zero effect on the baking (the original recipe doesn't even mention it). I love these cookies FOR that reason! I can just whip them up and bake them right away.

    Have fun! They've been a part of my family's Christmas tradition for a very long time. I hope they're part of yours now too!
