Peanut Blossoms Recipe

December 20, 2017 By BrightGreenDoor

These Reeses Peanut Blossoms Recipe is one of our favorite Christmas recipes and it just doesn’t feel like Christmas until we’ve baked some.

Growing up these cookies were a Christmas Cookie staple, but my Grandma would always put the traditional Hershey Kiss in each cookie. Then one year my mom put Reese’s into the cookies (my dad’s favorite treat) and it changed these cookies for us forever.Reeses Peanut Butter Cup Cookies
I still distinctly remember the year that my mom accidentally put baking powder in the cookies instead of baking soda and my little sister snuck one while they were cooling, and they were absolutely disgusting. But she couldn’t say anything because she wasn’t supposed to have one in the first place!Peanut Blossoms Recipe
Of course these will be waiting on a plate for Santa!

I’ll warn you that this recipe is **almost** too much to be doubled in my kitchenaid mixer! If you’re ok with a bit of a mess it can be done though. I’m known for always being the bowl over-filler.
