Instructions
Preparation Steps
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and well combined. Next, stir in the gluten-free flour, baking soda, and salt until just incorporated.
Using a tablespoon, scoop out portions of the dough and roll them into balls. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each ball. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until they’re slightly golden around the edges.
Immediately after removing them from the oven, gently press a chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie. Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
These cookies are best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
