Expert Tips

Chocolate-Peanut Butter Blossoms: Increase chocolate candies to 8 1/2 dozen. Melt 1 1/3 cups semisweet chocolate chips; beat in with eggs. After shaping dough into balls, roll in chocolate decorating decors (you’ll need four 1.75-ounce bottles). Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until edges are firm. Makes 8 1/2 dozen cookies.

To melt chocolate chips for the cookie variation, microwave in a microwavable bowl uncovered on High 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, stirring halfway through. If necessary, microwave an additional 10 to 20 seconds, stirring until smooth.

The chocolate decors for the cookie variation will stick when the consistency of the dough is moist; if dough appears dry, lightly roll balls between hands to press sprinkles in.

Cookie dough can be covered and refrigerated for up to 24 hours before baking. If it's too firm, let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.

Cookie sheets should be at least 2 inches smaller than the inside of your oven to allow the heat to circulate around the cookie sheets.

Well, I just mixed up all the ingredients exactly as the recipe is written and I cannot even work with it. It's all crumbly and just a big waste of ingredients! I did use Reduced Fat Jiff Peanut Butter but regardless, I think 3C. of flour is way too much! Very disappointing! I will need to find a different recipe if I want to try and make these again.

I don't usually submit reviews however I felt compelled by this recipe. Simply put: This is the best and easiest recipe I have ever used. I may actually use this as my only peanut butter cookie recipe and omit the kiss. Very well received by everyone!

These came out excellent - better than my grandmother's (which says a LOT)! I refrigerated the dough for several hours prior to baking, which made rolling easier and a lot less sticky. I also baked for 7 min, planted the Kisses, then baked for an additional minute so the kisses would melt into the cookies and be soft. The cookie recipe itself has great flavor, and the softer kisses are more pleasurable to the palate. I got the full 7 dozen out of this recipe.
