Peanut Butter Blossom Cookie Recipe in 30 Minutes

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
2. In a stand mixer or large bowl, cream together the softened butter, creamy peanut butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar for approximately 3 minutes until the mixture is pale and aerated.
3. Add the room-temperature egg, vanilla extract, and milk. Beat until fully emulsified.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture on low speed, mixing just until the last white streaks of flour disappear.
5. Scoop 1-tablespoon mounds of dough and roll into smooth spheres. Roll each ball in the pink sanding sugar until fully coated.
6. Place dough balls 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until the edges are just set but the centers remain soft.
7. Immediately after removing from the oven, press one chocolate kiss firmly into the center of each cookie. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely so the chocolate sets.
