I’m sorry anyone who ever slaved over beating butter and peanut butter together with a hand mixer to make some cookies.
These stupidly easy, mini-batchies melt in your mouth and they are just as good as the regular traditional version. That’s what I think anyway.
Please give them a try, all it takes is a few minutes and use a handful of ingredients that you’ll likely find in your pantry.
I’m dying for you to try them and let me know!
If you don’t have hershey’s kisses on hand, or prefer vegan chocolate, use whatever you like, they will taste just the same. YUM.
Mini-batch Peanut Butter Blossom Cookies
Servings: 4 cookies
Calories: 104kcal
Equipment
- Cookie sheet or similar
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp peanut butter (32 g) sub other nut/seed butter
- 1 tbsp maple syrup (21 g) you can probably sub sugar-free syrup
- 3 tbsp flour (21 g) gf all purpose if desired
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- pinch of salt
- 4 pieces Hershey's kisses, or other chocolate (22 g) df if desired
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F and line a cookie sheet with parchment.
- In a small bowl mix together peanut butter and maple syrup.
- In a mug whisk together flour, baking powder, salt.
- Gradually add flour to your small bowl, stopping when a soft non-sticky cookie dough is formed (this depends on your nut butter, I was left with 1 tsp flour unused). If the dough becomes too crumbly, add a drop of water and combine again.
- Break off about 1 tbsp cookie dough, roll between your palms (optional: also roll in sugar) and flatten gently on the parchment.
- Bake 8-9 minutes stopping exactly when cookies begin to crack.
- Immediately and gently press one piece of chocolate on each cookie.
- Let cookies cool and enjoy!

This is an awesome recipe for when you just want the taste of peanut butter blossoms but you donāt want a whole batch lying around, or also if you just want to use a small amount of ingredients to try out a recipe! The flavour was was peanutty and I loved the bonus of chocolate on top although you could use other candys too which I love. Highly recommend!
Thank you so much for this! Agreed, so quick to just try something, and move on to try something else š So glad you loved!!
