Baking Instructions
 
 
Heat Oven to 375F. Remove foil wrappers from the kisses.
 
Beat shortening,and  peanut butter in a large bowl until well blended. Add granulated sugar and brown sugar; beat until fluffy. Add egg, milk, and vanilla; beat well. Stir together flour, baking soda and salt. gradually beat into peanut butter mixture.
 
Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Roll in a bowl with granulated sugar and place on ungreased cookie sheet.
 
Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Immediately press a chocolate into center of each cookie; cookie will crack around edges. Remove from cookie sheet onto cooling rack and allow to cool completely.
 
Make sure you quickly put the kisses on the cookies press down a bit so they will stay on, you wait for them to cool the kisses won`t stay stuck on them.
 
Makes 4 dozen.
 
I always use my kitchen aide mixer to mix all my doughs. Makes it much easier on the hands, These are very easy to make and are great treat parties or Christmas tins. Actually they can be made anytime of the year! I love these. Enjoy!
