S'more Peanut Butter Blossoms


         I've always loved peanut butter blossoms, the cute little cookies with a hershey kiss on top. Chocolate and peanut butter is just an unbeatable combo, but these cookies are even better when you add a marshmallow on top. 



      It adds a whole new element to the appearance and the taste - they're soft, chewy and sweet and you can decorate them with colored sugar to fit any occasion! They're just a crowd pleasing dessert, everyone loves them. I made these for St. Patrick's day, so I colored mine green. They're easy, you can just use a bag mix and they're seriously good!



S'more Peanut Butter Blossoms
Ingredients:
1 pouch peanut butter cookie mix
3 Tbsp vegetable oil
1 tbsp water
1 egg
1/3 cup sugar
13-15 large marshmallows
2 drops color food dye
25-30 hershey kisses


Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix together peanut butter mix, oil, water and egg until combined. Shape dough into about 25-30, tablespoon sized balls and dip just one side in the sugar. Line on ungreased cookie sheet and bake 10-12 minutes, just until edges lightly brown. While cookies are baking, mix together food coloring and sugar (same sugar you dipped the dough in) in a plastic bag, working it with your hands until all sugar is dyed. Cut each marshmallow into halves (or thirds if you want smaller) and dip the sticky side in the colored sugar. When cookies are done, immediately top with marshmallow and put back in oven just for a few seconds to allow marshmallow to soften. Immediately top with hershey kiss when marshmallows are still soft.
