Mary’s favorite family Christmas Recipe
1 ¾ c. flour
1 tsp soda
½ tsp salt
½ c. sugar
½ c. brown sugar, packed
½ c. shortening
½ c. peanut butter
1 egg
2 Tbsp milk
1 tsp vanilla
48 milk chocolate kisses (9 oz.)
Combine all ingredients, except candy, in large mixing bowl. Mix on lowest speed of mixer until dough forms. Shape dough into balls, using a rounded teaspoonful for each. Roll balls in sugar; place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Top each cookie immediately with a chocolate kiss and press down firmly so cookie cracks around the edge. Yields 48 cookies.
