Chocolate Candy Kiss Cookies

I made these little bundles of chocolaty, confectionery sweetness for a friend recently and she totally loved them. They melt in your mouth and are completely easy to make.



Just out of the oven

Roll in the confectioner's sugar


 Ingredients

2 1/2 c flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 lb butter - unsalted (2 sticks)
1/2 c sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1 c finely chopped walnuts
30-40 chocolate Hershey's Kisses**
Confectioners (10x) sugar

**If Hershey's Kisses are not available where you are, any chunk of milk chocolate will work fine.

Mix flour and salt together. Add butter and mix til crumbly. Add sugar, egg, vanilla, and chopped nuts.

Preheat oven to 350 Fahrenheit.

Shape dough around the Hershey kisses and roll into small balls. You can do this by flattening a little mound of dough in your hand, placing the kiss in the center and forming the dough around it.

Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 13-16 minutes OR until slightly brown on top (some ovens take more or less time depending if it's gas or electric). Cool completely.

Roll in confectioners sugar.


Enjoy!

  2. These look delicious! I recently made something similar to this at the weekend with chocolate pieces inside. I also mixed up the recipe a bit too and I put peanut butter inside, it was completely delicious! xx
