Preheat the oven to 350 F (180C) and line 2 baking trays with parchment paper. And pop the kisses chocolates into the freezer.
Mix the butter and sugar in a large bowl and use a spoon to cream them together until smooth.
Once creamy add the egg and vanilla essence into the bowl and whisk together until combined.
Add on the peanut butter and keep mixing until smooth and creamy.
Add in the flour, baking powder and a pinch of salt and mix together with a spoon until well combined.
Use a tablespoon measure to scoop out some dough and then use your hands to shape the dough into balls and them flatten the a bit. Lay them out on the lined baking tray with a good gap between each.
Use a kiss chocolate to make a indent in the cookies for the kisses to fit into after baking. Then pop into the oven and bake for 10 - 15 minutes.
Remove from the oven and immediately place the unwrapped chocolates on top of each cookie in the indent you made. Allow to cool and enjoy.
