Instructions

Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. You can also use ungreased baking sheets.
In a large mixing bowl, or bowl from stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, cream the granulated sugar, brown sugar, butter and peanut butter until light and fluffy. (about 1 full minute)
Add in the egg and vanilla extract and beat until well combined.
In a small mixing bowl, combine all purpose flour, baking soda and salt.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, beating on low speed until well combined.
Wrap the dough and chill for 30 minutes.
While the dough is chilling, unwrap the hershey Kisses and place them on a plate in the refrigerator to chill. This will stop them from melting when you press them into the warm cookie.
Using clean hands, shape dough into 1 and 1/2″ balls, then roll each cookie dough ball in the additional 1/2 cup of granulated sugar.
Place the cookie dough balls 2″ apart on prepared baking sheet.
Bake in 375°F oven for 8 to 10 minutes until a light golden brown.
Remove the cookies from the oven and immediately press a chocolate Hershey’s Kiss into the centre of each cookie.
Cool on wire rack, then enjoy!
