Peanut Butter Blossoms

Peanut Blossoms II Recipe

Ingredients:
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
1 eggs
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup white sugar for decoration
1 (9 ounce) bag milk chocolate candy
kisses, unwrapped
Directions
1.  Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
2.  In a large bowl, cream together the shortening, peanut butter, brown sugar, and 1 cup white sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, and stir in the milk and vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt; stir into the peanut butter mixture until well blended. Shape tablespoonfuls of dough into balls, and roll in remaining white sugar. Place cookies 2 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets.
3.  Bake for 10 to12 minutes in the preheated oven. Remove from oven, and immediately press a chocolate kiss into each cookie. Allow to cool completely; the kiss will harden as it cools.
