I love-love-love chocolate and peanut butter together, I say it is one of the world's greatest treasures. These are different than the traditional peanut butter/chocolate kiss cookies in that they have cocoa in the dough.
Yummy!
48 unwrapped milk chocolate kiss candies
1/2 c. shortening
1/2 c. creamy peanut butter
1/2 c. crunchy peanut butter
1/2 c. packed light brown sugar
1/3 c. white sugar
1 egg
2 Tbsp. milk
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 c. flour
1/3 c. cocoa powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
