Peanut Blossoms

This recipe is on a worn, torn, and stained piece of paper in my Grandmother's recipe collection. I remember these very well, they are some of my favorite cookies. Unfortunately, candy kisses are hard to come by in Germany.

Bake at 375° for 8 min., then for 2 to 5 min. Makes about 3 doz. cookies

Sift together..... 1 ¾ cups flour, 1 teaspoon soda, ½ teaspoon salt
Cream together..... ½ cup butter and ½ cup peanut butter.
Gradually add ..... ½ cup sugar and ½ cup packed brown sugar.
Add ..... 1 unbeated egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla, beat well.
Blend in ... the dry ingredients gradually; mix thoroughly.
Shape ..... dough into balls using a rounded tsp. for each. Roll balls in sugar and place on ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake ..... at 375° (190 C) for 8 min. Remove sheet from oven and place milk chocolate candy kiss on top of each cookie pressing down so that cookie cracks around the edge. Return cookies to oven and bake 2 to 5 min. longer until golden brown.
