Sweetheart Peanut Blossoms
This is the traditional peanut butter cookie with what would normally be topped with a Hershey's Kiss. But with Valentine's Day just next week, I opted for the Dove heart-shaped milk chocolate candy. Always good.
SWEETHEART PEANUT BLOSSOMS (makes about 3 dozen)
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 3/4 cup AP flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 package heart-shaped chocolates
Cream butter and sugars. Add egg and vanilla. Add dry ingredients. (At this point, I prefer to chill my cookie dough, preferably overnight). Roll into balls (I weigh mine out at 20 grams each). Place on baking sheet lined with a Silpat or parchment paper. Bake 8-10 minutes at 375. Press the heart-shaped chocolate gently into each cookie. Bake 1-3 minutes longer.
