Looking for a simple, traditional Christmas cookie? These Peanut Butter Kisses may be just the recipe you are looking for.
Peanut Butter kisses was one of the four cookies we made at our annual Cookie Day the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Growing up, I can remember eating these, but I had never actually made them until I started attending Cookie Day.
I don’t really consider these to only be a Christmas cookie. You can make them anytime of the year because is there any other better combination than chocolate and peanut butter?

Out of all the cookies we make on Cookie Day these Peanut Butter Kisses are probably my favorite. But then, I love anything peanut butter!
Aside from the kisses, you probably already have all the ingredients in your pantry to make these for your next get together, or just because.
