1 cup peanut butter
1 cup sugar
1 large egg, room temperature

Roll into 1-1/4-in. balls. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake until tops are slightly cracked, 10-12 minutes. Immediately press 1 chocolate kiss into center of each cookie. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.

Test Kitchen Tips

This recipe does not contain flour. Reduced-fat or generic brands of peanut butter are not recommended for this recipe.

Cutting butter into dry ingredients results in tiny bits of flour-coated butter throughout the dough, creating a cookie crust that is both tender and crumbly at the same time. If you don’t have a pastry blender, use two knives to cut in the cold butter.
