My grandmother made these cookies every year, and they are a sentimental favorite with my family. My husband loves them as well.

2 ½ cups flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup Crisco
½ tsp. vanilla
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup sugar
1 cup peanut butter
2 eggs
Additional sugar for rolling cookie dough balls in
Hershey’s kisses

Cream together Crisco, vanilla, sugars, peanut butter & eggs. Combine flour, baking soda & salt and add to creamed mixture. Shape dough into balls and roll in sugar. Bake at 375 degrees for 6-8 minutes. Indent Hershey’s kiss into center of each cookie & bake for 2 minutes longer.

These cookies are really good with a mini peanut butter cup in the center, too.
