In large bowl, beat shortening and peanut butter until well blended. Add 1/2 cup of the granulated sugar and all of the brown sugar; beat until light and fluffy. Add egg, milk and vanilla; beat well. Stir together flour, baking soda and salt; gradually add to peanut butter mixture. Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Roll in the rest of the granulated sugar; place on ungreased cookie sheet.

With all the different "kisses" now be sure to try them all. Dark chocolate are excellent of course milk chocolate is still the best.
