1 cups unsalted butter, softened
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup Hershey's cocoa
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
Hershey's' Peppermint Kisses, unwrapped
- Heat the oven to 350° and cover two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Beat the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, and then the vanilla; beat well. In a separate bowl, combine with a whisk the flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt. Gradually (and slowly if using an kind of motorized mixer) add the flour mixture into the butter mixture; beating until well combined.
- Roll the dough into 1-inch balls. Place on the parchment paper lined baking sheets, about 1 inch apart. Flatten the balls with the bottom of a measuring cup or a glass that has been dipped in water (to prevent sticking).
- Bake for 8 to 9 minutes or until cookies are set. Immediately upon removing the cookies from the oven, top them with the kiss. Cool slightly on the baking sheet and remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
Yum! I love that there are so many Hershey kiss options out there right now, and they are so interchangeable for these cookies:)
