For a sweet Valentine’s Day treat, whip up a batch of Bisquick peanut butter blossoms to show your love. This delicious recipe uses only 5 ingredients and is topped with delicious chocolate peanut butter heart candies.
I love the creamy peanut butter flavor and sweet heart on top.
It’s a sweet touch for Valentine‘s Day if you want to make something tasty and fun but don’t need to go over the top.
I love cooking and baking with Bisquick. A couple of my favorite savory options include this easy burrito casserole and yummy sausage and cheese balls.
And if you haven’t tried the ultimate pancake mix recipe on the back of the box you are in for a treat!
What I love about this Recipe
- Great lunchbox treat

Ingredients
This simple cookie staple starts off as classic peanut butter cookies rolled in sugar and topped with a chocolate peanut butter heart.
Here’s what you need:
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- ¾ cup peanut butter
- 2 cups Bisquick baking mix
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- Regular granulated sugar for rolling the cookies
- 36 peanut butter heart candies (approximately)
How to Make Bisquick Peanut Butter Cookies
Below is a visual walk through of the recipe instructions for these classic cookies. You can find and print the details using the printable recipe card at the bottom of this post.
Heat oven to 375°F.
Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
In a large mixing bowl, mix milk and peanut together. You can also use an electric mixer on low speed if you prefer.
Add the biscuit mix and the teaspoon vanilla, and fold together until everything is well combined and peanut butter cookie dough has formed.
Place about a cup of white sugar in a small bowl.
Then, using a cookie scoop, shape dough balls and roll each ball in sugar. Then place them about 2 inches apart on the ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake for about 10 minutes until the edges of the cookies are golden brown. Note: the bottoms of cookies may be darker.
Place a peanut butter heart candy into the center of each cookie and cool for 2 minutes on the pan.
Note: If your cookies crack when you press the chocolate down, that’s ok. They’re supposed to do that!
Transfer hot cookies to a wire rack to continue cooling and enjoy!
Variations
These easy cookies are such a fun twist on the classic peanut butter blossoms recipe typically made with Hershey’s Kisses. It’s such a versatile dessert and you can really make it your own.
Here are a few more ideas to try for this Valentine’s Day version:
- Roll cookies in pink and red sugar crystals instead of white sugar to add even more Valentine’s Day flare.
- Use peanut butter cups instead of hearts to enjoy whenever you want.
- Drizzle pink and white melted chocolate on top of each cookie.
- Try dark chocolate for even more richness
Storing Tips
These cookies can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container or zip top bag for 3-5 days.
If you want to prepare the dough ahead of time, I recommend rolling the sugar cookie mix into balls and placing the baking sheet in the freezer.
When frozen, transfer to an airtight container and return to the freezer. If stored properly, these cookies can be frozen for several months.
When ready to bake, thaw the cookies in the fridge overnight and continue with the recipe instructions.
