Ingredients
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
4 ounces (1 stick) butter, at room temperature
½ cup smooth peanut butter
½ cup granulated sugar, plus more for rolling
½ cup light brown sugar
1 large egg
1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Nonstick spray or vegetable oil for cookie sheet, optional
5 dozen (1 - 11-ounce package) Hershey’s Kisses, foil removed, or Brach’s Stars

- Sift together flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.
- Using an electric mixer, cream together butter, peanut butter, ½ cup granulated sugar and light brown sugar.
- Add egg, milk and vanilla; beat until well blended.
- Gradually add flour mixture, mixing thoroughly. If the dough is very soft, refrigerate for about 1 hour.
- Heat oven to 375 F. Spray, oil or line a cookie sheet with nonstick liner and set aside.
