We wanted to share some of our FAVORITE Christmas cookies with you this week! I know that Christmas cookies are not necessarily healthy or low in pp, BUT it is important for you to know how many pp you are eating if you do give in and have a cookie or two over the holiday season!
That said, this is one of my absolute favorite Christmas cookies! These cookies have always topped the list when my family gets together to bake holiday cookies. I’m sure you’ve had some variation of this recipe at some point, but like I said earlier, now you know how many pp each peanut butter kiss cookie is!!
Servings: Recipe will make 3 dozen
Size: 1 cookie
Points Plus: 3pp
Level of Difficulty: Easy
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Bake Time: 12-15 minutes
Rating: 5 stars – Excellent
Ingredient List:
4 Tbsp. butter
4 Tbsp. shortening
¾ cup peanut butter
½ cup sugar
½ cup brown sugar
1 ½ Tbsp. vegetable oil
1 egg
1 ½ cups flour
½ tsp. baking soda
Hershey kisses
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350°. Lightly grease your cookie sheets. In a medium bowl, cream butter, shortening, peanut butter and sugars until well mixed. Stir in the oil and egg. Add flour and baking soda. Stir until just combined. Roll into balls and then roll in sugar before baking. Bake for 12-15 minutes. Transfer to a wire cooling rack immediately after they come out of the oven and gently press a chocolate kiss in the middle of each cookie to flatten.
Tip:
Make sure you un-wrap all your Hershey kisses and place in small bowl ahead of time! Once your cookies are out of the oven you will want to work quickly to place a kiss in the middle of each cookie.
