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.

These are the best Peanut Blossom cookies ever BUT instead of putting a KISS on top, I made these smaller for a wedding and put a ROLO on top and let them soften on top of the hot cookies. Turned out great!

These cookies are awful..they tast so blah. I was very disappointed after promising to make these for my grandkids. You definately need to add vanilla extract and salt. I will never use this recipe again.

The temperature is WAY too high for this recipe....after burning the first two batches, I lowered the oven to 350, and that helped.
