Peanut Blossoms were developed by Freda Smith from Gibsonburg, Pa. in a National Pillsbury Bake-Offf competition in 1949. In 1957 she entered the recipe in another competition, however, her recipe did not clinch the grand prize.
Pillsbury established a Bake-Off Hall of Fame. They later designed a cookbook , and her recipe was included. The Hershey Company saw a chance to advertise, and printed her recipe on all Hershey Kisses bags.
I make them for all holidays and make them in many styles.
