Prep time: 10 min
Cook time: 10 min
Total time: 20 min
Ingredients: 3 tbsp granulated sugar (divided (2 tbsp for dough, 1 tbsp for rolling)); 2 tbsp brown sugar; 2 tbsp creamy peanut butter; 2 tbsp salted butter (softened); 1 large egg yolk; 6 tbsp all-purpose flour; ¼ tsp baking soda; ⅛ tsp baking powder; 6 unwrapped chocolate Kisses

Directions

Heat the oven to 375°F.
Beat 2 tablespoons of the granulated sugar with the brown sugar, peanut butter, butter, and egg yolk until well mixed.
Stir in the flour, baking soda, and baking powder until a soft dough forms.
Roll the dough into six 1-inch balls and roll each in the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar. Set them 2 inches apart on a baking sheet.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until the edges are light golden. As soon as they come out of the oven, press a chocolate Kiss into the center of each cookie.
Move them to a rack and let them cool for about 30 minutes, until the chocolate sets.
