Peanut Butter Blossoms in 30 Minutes

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Beat the softened butter, peanut butter, white sugar, and brown sugar in a large bowl on medium-high speed until the texture is smooth and the color is pale tan.
3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
4. Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl.
5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients on low speed, mixing only until the flour streaks disappear.
6. Scoop 1 tablespoon of dough and roll it into a 1-inch ball.
7. Roll each ball in the 1/4 cup of granulated sugar until evenly coated.
8. Place the balls 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
9. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until the edges are set but the centers still look slightly soft.
10. Remove the pan from the oven and immediately press one milk chocolate kiss firmly into the center of each cookie.
