Black-eyed Susans


A great pressed cookie! Beautiful when flower or star-shaped, though I recently used heart-shaped cookies and chocolates for Valentine's Day.
  • 1 stick butter
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons warm water
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 50-60 Hershey's kisses
Cream butter and sugars. Beat in egg, then water and vanilla. Beat in peanut butter. Combine dry ingredients, then stir into batter. Using star- or flower-shaped disc, press cookies ont baking sheet. Bake 8 minutes at 350 degrees. Remove from oven and immediately press unwrapped chocolate into center. Cool thoroughly.
