Ingredients
  

1 cup creamy peanut butter

1 cup granulated sugar

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

About 24 Hershey's Kisses (unwrapped)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

    Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter, granulated sugar, egg, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt. Mix well until you have a smooth, dough-like consistency.

      Form the Cookies: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and roll them into balls. Place the cookie balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

        Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for about 8-10 minutes, or until they are slightly golden and set around the edges but still soft in the middle.

          Add the Kisses: Immediately after removing the cookies from the oven, gently press a Hershey's Kiss into the center of each cookie. Allow the cookies to rest on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes.

            Cool Down: Carefully transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. The cookies will firm up as they cool, providing a delicious chewy texture around the chocolate.

              Serve: Enjoy your Peanut Butter Kisses fresh or store in an airtight container for up to a week. Perfect for parties or as a sweet treat for any occasion!
