Peanut Butter Kisses Cookies

This is a classic yummy cookie. I got it straight from Hershey Kisses themselves. Thank you!

Hershey Kisses (of course)
1/2 cup shortening
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1 egg
2 Tbs milk
1 tsp vanilla
1 - 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
granulated sugar

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Remove foil from Kisses (do I really need to say that?)
Beat butter and peanut butter until well blended. Add sugars and beat until fluffy. Add egg, milk and vanilla and beat well. Stir together flour, baking soda and salt and add to peanut butter mixture.

Roll dough into small 1 inch balls (These are the one cookie that I actually seek out the smallest cookie to maximize cookie to kiss ratio). Place on UNGREASED cookie sheet.

Bake 8 minutes. You don't want to see them brown at all b/c then they are already too crunchy. SOFT is the key on these. Immediately press a kiss into the cookie and sorry to say you should wait a couple minutes before you dive in and try one.
