Valentine Peanut Butter Cookies
This is a great recipe for peanut butter cookies, and trading out a Dove heart-shaped chocolate for the traditional Hershey Kiss is a change not only appropriate for Valentine's Day, but one that I'm going to make permanently! (so creamy, so yummy, and so much more evenly distributed so that every bite get delicious chocolate with it :-P)
Recipe
1 1/3 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup butter-softened
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar-packed
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
additional sugar
1 package Dove chocolate hearts
Yields around 24 cookies
Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix in butter and creamy peanut butter until well-mixed. Mix in sugar and brown sugar. Mix in egg and vanilla-beat until well-blended. Form dough into golf-ball shaped balls. Roll in additional sugar. Bake on un-greased cookie sheet at 375 degrees for 8 minutes. Remove from oven and press one chocolate heart into the center of each cookie. Return to oven for two minutes. Let cool. Enjoy!
