How long can you store Peanut Butter Blossoms?

Assuming you’re talking about the cookies:

Peanut Butter Blossoms are a holiday classic cookie, and one that can be easily made at home. But how long do they last?

For starters, let’s look at the ingredients. Peanut butter, sugar, eggs, flour, baking soda and salt are all common pantry staples with long shelf lives. The only perishable ingredient is milk, which is used in the frosting. So as long as you use fresh milk in the frosting , your cookies should be good for several days.

The key to storing any type of cookie is to keep them in an airtight container. This will help them stay fresh and prevent them from drying out. Peanut Butter Blossoms can be stored in a covered cookie jar or Tupperware-style container on the countertop or in the pantry. If you live in a humid climate , it’s best to store them in the fridge or freezer to prevent spoilage.

In general , homemade cookies will only last about three to five days before they start to go stale. However, if you store them properly , they may last up to two weeks. commercially baked cookies have a longer shelf life due to preservatives , but they also tend to be less moist and flavorful than their homemade counterparts.

ultimately it depends on how well you store your Peanut Butter Blossom Cookies as too whether they will go stale quicker.

Why are my peanut butter blossoms dry?

There are a few reasons why your peanut butter blossoms might be dry. The most likely reason is that you have too much flour in the recipe, or too little liquid (or a combination of both). Another possibility is that the recipe itself is written in a way that produces dry cookies.

To avoid dry cookies, make sure you measure the ingredients carefully and add enough liquid to the dough. If you’re not sure how much liquid to add, start with a small amount and add more as needed until the dough is moist but not wet. Also, be careful not to overbake the cookies; they should be just lightly browned around the edges.

Can you make peanut butter blossoms with chunky peanut butter?

The answer to whether you can make peanut butter blossoms with chunky peanut butter is a resounding yes! In fact, many people prefer using chunky peanut butter for this classic cookie recipe.

The key to making perfect peanut butter blossoms is to use the right ratio of ingredients. For every 4 ounces (120 grams) of unsalted butter, you’ll need 4 ounces (120 grams) of smooth or chunky peanut butter and 1/2 cup (100 grams/3.5 ounces) each of white granulated sugar and light brown sugar packed.

Once you have your ingredients measured out, simply cream the butter and sugars together until light and fluffy. Add in the peanut butter and mix until well combined. Then, shape the dough into balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake the cookies at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until they are lightly golden brown around the edges. Remove from the oven and press a chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie while they are still warm.
