Christmas Kiss Cookies
These easy to make Christmas Kiss Cookies are sure to be a hit! These soft chocolate cookies are covered with sprinkles and topped with a Hershey's Kiss!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (can try swapping peppermint extract for a chocolate- mint flavoured cookie)
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/4 cup flour
- 3/4 cup Christmas coloured sprinkles
- 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]
- Place sprinkles in a small bowl and working with one cookie ball at a time, roll the ball around the sprinkles until coated. Place the dough balls on the baking sheets, 2 inches apart. If the dough feels sticky again, place it 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.]
- 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.
