Ingredients
 
 

  • 1/2 cup butter softened
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/4 cups flour
  • 3/4 cup sprinkles (optional)
  • 20 Hershey's kisses

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In the bowl of your stand mixer, beat the butter and sugar until fluffy (a couple of minutes). Add the egg, milk, vanilla extract and mix to combine.
  • Add the salt, cocoa powder and baking soda and mix to combine. Slowly add the flour until incorporated.
  • Scoop out dough (I like to use a small sized cookie scoop- about 1 tablespoon) and roll the dough into a ball. [If the dough is too sticky to roll, place it in the fridge for 30 minutes] If you like, you can roll the dough balls in sprinkles at this point.
  • Place the dough balls on the baking sheets, 2 inches apart. If the dough feels sticky again, place the cookie dough in the fridge to chill for about an hour. [If the butter warms up, the cookies will spread more in the oven so to prevent this, err on the side of caution and chill the cookie dough before baking. I often place the whole cookie sheet in the fridge.]
  • Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes. Remove them from the oven and gently press a Hershey kiss into the center of each cookie. Allow the cookies to cool on a baking sheet for 5 minutes and then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.
