Gluten Free (Flourless) Peanut Butter Kiss Cookies
- 11 ounces, weight Hershey's Chocolate Kisses (you May Not Need The Entire Bag)
- 2-1/2 cups Creamy Peanut Butter
- 1-1/2 cup Light Brown Sugar, Packed
- 1/2 teaspoons Teaspoon Salt (I Used Kosher Salt)
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 2 Large Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- 1/2 cups Granulated Sugar, For Rolling
- Preheat your oven to 350u0b0F (175u0b0C). Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper or nonstick baking liners and set aside. Unwrap your chocolate Kisses and set aside (one bag should do for this recipe).
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the peanut butter, brown sugar, salt, and baking soda on medium speed until well combined (1-2 minutes). Add the eggs and vanilla extract and beat until well combined.
- Put the granulated sugar into a shallow bowl.
- Using a teaspoon (heaping) or a standard cookie scoop, scoop out the cookie dough and roll into 1 1/2-inch balls.
- Roll the cookie dough balls in the granulated sugar and place them about 2-inches apart on the cookie sheets. You should only bake 2 sheets at a time so refrigerate the remaining dough.
- Bake the cookies at 350u0b0F (175u0b0C) for 11 to 13 minutes or until they are puffed and starting to crackle.
- Remove pans from the oven. Press a chocolate Kiss into the center of each cookie as soon as you remove the cookie sheet from the oven.
- Chill the cookies immediately by placing the cookie sheet into the freezer or refrigerator. This helps to set the Kisses since they begin to melt a bit as soon as you place them on the cookie.
- As soon as the chocolate is set you can remove the cookie tray from the cold and store cookies on a cooling rack.
- Bake the remainder of the cookies.
- Store the cookies at room temperature in a covered container for up to a week. You can also freeze these cookies for a few weeks, but make sure they're tightly sealed.
- Note: These cookies are more fragile and have a bit more tender crumb compared to the classic Peanut Butter Kiss cookie recipe.
