Caramel Peanut Butter Blossoms

If you're a sucker for caramel, peanut butter or chocolate, you'll love peanut butter blossoms. These cookies are best served soon after baking or within 2-3 days and are certainly a must for any holiday gift boxes you may be putting together.

Typically peanut butter blossoms are topped with regular Hershey Kisses, but I love caramel and personally think the addition in this recipe, a slight change, makes a huge difference!

The tricky thing about the cookies is their propensity to dry out a bit. The key is not to overbake them and be wary of the amount of flour or other dry ingredients added. However, there will be natural splits and crinkles.

Side note about these iconic cookies (courtesy of a 1957 Pillsbury Bake-Off contest). If you are loyal to Hershey, there are caramel-stuffed Kisses you can use. It's up to you! In my case, Rolos were available.
