Servings: 48 cookies
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup 8 Tbs butter or vegan butter (I used Earth Balance Buttery Sticks)
- 1/2 cup peanut butter super oily "natural" peanut butters not recommended, creamy or crunchy (cookies pictured made with crunchy)
- 1 egg or egg substitute
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cup 236 grams gfJules Gluten Free All Purpose Flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt optional if using salted butter
- 48 gluten free Kiss Candies use HU Organic Vegan Chocolate Gems for vegan option
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- Cream butter and sugars until light. Add egg or substitute and vanilla, mixing until incorporated. Add peanut butter and mix.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the gfJules Flour, baking soda and salt, if using.
- Slowly stir in the flour mixture to the larger mixing bowl until a soft but firm dough forms. If it is very stiff or dry, add 1-2 tablespoons milk of choice.
- Shape into balls using a small cookie scooper or a teaspoon. Roll in sugar or not, up to you (I didn't). Place on prepared cookie sheet and bake for 10 minutes, until starting to lightly brown.
- Remove and immediately press a Kiss candy into each cookie while they are hot. Allow to cool before removing from pan.
