Peanut Butter Cookies

This is a really yummy recipe from a cookbook my sister-in-law made me with family favorites. They're really soft and chewy. Usually you place a Hershey's Kiss on top, but for Valentine's Day I chose a Reese's heart.

1 cup brown sugar
1 cup sugar
1 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup peanut butter
2 eggs
2 t. vanilla
Cream together and add:
1 t. salt
2 t. baking soda
2 3/4 cups flour
Mix well and roll into balls, dip tops into sugar. Bake at 375 for 9-10 minutes. Place kisses or Reese's in middle of cookie immediately after taking them out of the oven.

Yield: 4 dozen
