Those are really two different sources. Betty Crocker is one, Better Homes and Gardens the other. So far this is the only one I've found without baking powder. Peanut Blossom Cookies INGREDIENTS: 8 oz. pkg. milk chocolate kisses 1/2 cup butter, softened 3/4 cup peanut butter 1/3 cup sugar 1/3 cup light brown sugar 1 egg 2 Tbsp. milk 1 tsp. vanilla 1-1/4 cups flour 1 tsp. baking soda 1/4 tsp. salt more granulated sugar PREPARATION: Heat oven to 375 F. Remove wrappers from chocolate. Beat butter and peanut butter in large bowl until well blended. Add 1/3 cup sugar and brown sugar; beat until light and fluffy. Add egg, milk and vanilla; beat well. Stir together flour, baking soda and salt; gradually beat into peanut butter mixture. Cover tightly and chill for 4-8 hours in fridge. Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Roll in granulated sugar; place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly browned. Immediately press a chocolate piece into center of each cookie; cookie will crack slightly around edges. Let stand on cookie sheets for 3-4 minutes, then remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely. Makes about 48 cookies To freeze, shape dough into balls but do not roll in sugar. Place on waxed paper lined cookie sheets and freeze until firm. Pack into hard sided freezer containers; label, and freeze up to 3 months. To bake, roll frozen dough into sugar, then bake as directed, adding 3-6 minutes to the baking time. Here's one from my own files that always amazes me because it works. Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies INGREDIENTS 1 cup peanut butter 1 cup white sugar 1 egg DIRECTIONS Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Combine ingredients and drop by teaspoonfuls on cookie sheet. Bake for 8 minutes. Let cool. Recipe doesn't make very many, so you could double recipe as you desire.
