Peanut Butter with a Cinnamon Twist Blossoms

If you have not noticed, I love peanut butter. Whether that be in the form of chips, straight up, dough, bars, you name it. Call it amazing. Since I happened to have a couple of bags of Hershey's Kisses on my hands, peanut butter blossoms seemed to be the obvious solution. I mean, peanut butter and chocolate, how can you say no?But I have made peanut butter blossoms in the past I decided to switch it up by throwing in another favourite, cinnamon. It is quite simple actually, just roll your recipe of choice in cinnamon sugar and throw in the odd Hershey's hug/caramel kiss instead. A new but old classic.

Peanut Butter with a Cinnamon Twist Blossoms
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp salt
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 cup sugar + 2 tsp cinnamon
48 kisses of your choice, unwrapped

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Combine 1/2 cup sugar, brown sugar, butter and peanut butter in large bowl. Beat until light and fluffy. Add egg, vanilla and salt and continue beating until well mixed. Add the flour and baking soda. Continue beating, scraping bowl often, until well mixed. Shape dough into 1-inch balls but if the dough is too soft throw it in the fridge for about an hour or till firm. Roll balls in cinnamon sugar mix. Place 2 inches apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until very lightly golden brown. Immediately press 1 chocolate kiss in center of each cookie. Remove from cookie sheets and let cool completely on wire racks.
