What you need to make peanut butter blossom cookies

The wet ingredients:

Butter – pretty much all cookies start with butter, creamed to incorporate air into the cookies, and it makes cookies taste delicious. Peanut Butter – you can’t make peanut butter blossoms cookies without peanut butter. Creamy peanut butter is the way to go, but chunky will work too if you like bits of peanuts in your cookies. Both store-bought and homemade peanut butter will work in this recipe. Brown Sugar – to sweeten these delicious cookies. Egg – is a binder to keep everything together. Vanilla Extract – to enhance flavor.

The dry ingredients:

Flour – nothing fancy, just good old all-purpose flour. Salt – to enhance flavor. Baking soda and baking powder – for leavening. Chocolate Kisses – I like dark chocolate, but you can use any kind.

How to make peanut butter blossoms cookies

You can make the cookie dough in a stand mixer or with a handheld electric mixer. Creaming butter by hand is possible, but you gotta love modern technology, helping us make cookies even faster.

Tips for making peanut butter blossoms cookies

Be sure to allow refrigerated ingredients (butter and egg) to come to room temperature before making the cookie dough. I like to portion the cookie dough before refrigerating because it is easier to scoop. This way if you end up leaving the dough in the fridge for a few hours or overnight, you don’t have to wrestle with a hard dough in the bowl. You could roll the dough balls in sugar before baking for a sparkly look. You could also use red and green sanding sugar for the holidays.

Storing peanut butter blossom cookies

Keep these cookies in an airtight container on your countertop, you do not need to refrigerate them. They will last up to a week, that is if you have excellent self-control.
