Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl, beat the butter or margarine and peanut butter till well blended. Add the sugars; beat till light and fluffy. Add the egg, milk and vanilla, and beat well. Stir the flour, soda and salt together. Gradually mix into the wet ingredients.

Shape the dough into 1-inch balls. Roll in sugar. Place balls on an ungreased cookie sheet, and bake in a preheated 375F oven for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and immediately place one chocolate chunk or "kiss" on each cookie. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
