The ninja farmer has a sweet tooth (okay I have one too) so I decided to show him my love by making him some Valentine cookies. One of my very favorite cookie recipes is Peanut Butter Kisses. They are so easy and super yummy too. I saw a picture on another blog of someone using heart shaped chocolates instead of Hershey kisses and I liked the idea and promptly stole....I mean borrowed it. They turned out as scrumptious as always and have a Valentine flair. Thankfully the ninja farmer was busy so I was able to snap a few pictures before he started eating them.
Peanut Butter Kisses
2 cups peanut butter1 1/4 cups sugar
2 large eggs
That's right only three ingredients and no flour...so easy right?!
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix peanut butter, sugar, and eggs in a bowl until blended and then roll into tsp size balls* and place on ungreased cookie sheet. I can fit 18 on my big cookie sheet since they don't spread a whole lot during baking and usually get about 36 cookies from this recipe. Bake for 12-14 minutes until tops are cracked and dry looking. As soon as the cookies come out of the oven press your chocolate hearts (or kisses) into the center of each cookie. Transfer to a cooling rack after 3 or 4 minutes. Let the cookies cool until the chocolate is set. Enjoy!*The recipe calls for floured hands which I used today but if you want to make these gluten free I'm sure you could use gluten free flour or another substitute.
