You don’t need to make the indentation in the balls, when they are cooked & puffy, just mash the Kissie into them. AND before you bake them you can roll the balls in granulated sugar before you put them on the baking sheet. That is my Granny’s way to make them

Great idea to roll the balls in sugar before baking! I do that with another peanut butter cookies recipe, but I didn’t think to combine them!
