Hello, every birdy. Today we are going to be making a recipe that I have always loved. And honestly, it just confirms the fact that my tastebuds are childish, haha. Even after saying that, these cookies are a bit sweet for my liking. If I make them again I am just going to make my normal peanut butter cookies. We are going to be making Peanut Butter Blossoms.
So… we are going to be talking about the Character known as Tignarhi. (tig-nar-e). He is one of the first characters the traveler (main character) meets when entering Sumeru. He is a Forest Watcher and he is a scholar. His favorite food is one of my least favorite food, mushrooms. They just have a weird mouth feel for me and just don’t taste good.
When I saw that his favorite food was mushrooms, I was a little apprehensive and unsure about what I should make. And then my oldest brother brought home a huge bag of Hershey kisses. And I knew that I would make Peanut Butter Blossoms.
The recipe and the measurements will be in the description down below. Feel free to check it out for yourself.
You will want to preheat your oven to 375 F and DO NOT grease your cookie sheets. The sugar on the outside of the cookies will caramelize and burn if you grease your cookie sheet. Unless you are like my dad and prefer your cookies like that, I suggest you not.
The ingredients that you will need are:
- Hershey Kisses
- butter/margerine/shortening
- Cream Peanut Butter
- Granulated Sugar
- Brown sugar
- Milk
- Vanilla extract
- All purpose flour
- Baking soda
- Salt
- Granulated sugar for rolling (optional)
Using a large bowl you are going to cream together your butter and peanut butter until it is well blended.
Add in the granulated sugar and brown sugar. Beat the mixture until it is light and fluffy. This takes about 2-3 minutes.
Add in the egg, milk, and vanilla. Beat until they are all incorporated.
In a separate bowl, you are going to mix together your dry ingredients: Flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this to your peanut butter mixture.
Now we are going to be working on the shape of the cookies. You want them to be about 1-inch balls. You can either do that with a cookie scoop or two spoons that are teaspoon sized.
Roll each cookie into granulated sugar, and place them on an ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake them at 375 F for somewhere between 8 to 10 minutes or until they are lightly browned.
Once they are out of the oven, immediately add in your chocolate to the center of the cookie. The cookies will crack around the edges. Let them cool completely before eating. Because you don’t want the Kiss to melt.
These cookies were so much fun to make. But one thing that I would recommend is removing the wrappers from the chocolates before you even start making the cookies. It will help with time management.
I was a little nervous about these cookies because I brought some with me to my Volunteering I do every week at my local Food pantry. These were the first cookies that I had given people. And they loved them. I had put multiple signs on the Tupperware that was brought in that said that they had Peanut butter in them.
I hope that you liked this recipe. Feel free to check it out for yourself. See you in the next post. Thank you.
