These can be made with Hershey's Kisses or Reese's Peanut Butter Cups (minis).  This year, I did half of them with Hershey's Kisses and half with the Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.

  • 1/2 cup butter or margarine
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 1/4 cup flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Hershey's Kisses
Directions:
  • Thoroughly cream the butter, peanut butter, sugars, egg and vanilla together.
  • In a small bowl, sift together the dry ingredients.
  • Blend ths into the creamed mixture.
  • Shape into 1 inch balls; roll in granulated sugar.
  • Place 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet.
  • Bake at 375 degrees for 6 - 8 minutes.
  • Place chocolate kisses on and return to the oven for 2 - 4 minutes.
Makes 3 - 4 dozen.
