CHERRY CHOCOLATE KISS COOKIES - VALENTINE KISSES
These cookies are similar to Peanut Butter Blossoms, but are cherry cookies instead of peanut butter. I like to make them for Valentine's Day-- and call them Valentine Kisses. There are many variations-- you can use make the dough and use white or semi-sweet chocolate chips or use mini-kisses for smaller bite size cookies. The dough can be rolled in plain sugar, or red decorator sugar for an extra festive look.

Steps:
- Beat butter, add sugar and salt. Beat in cherry liquid and almond extract. Beat in flour. Fold in cherries.
- Refrigerate dough for at least 30 minutes (you don't have to, but dough is easier to work with when cold).
- Roll dough into balls, coat in sugar and place on cookie sheet. These cookies will flatten on their own, but I typically put a thumb print in the center to flatten some.
- Bake at 325 degrees for 14 minutes. Let cool on pan for 1-2 minutes.
- Add Hershey Kiss/Hug to center of the cookies. (Hugs melt especially fast, you may want to let the cookies cool a little longer before adding Hugs, but cookies should still be warm so chocolate can melt into the cookie).
- Transfer to wire rack to cool.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a mixing bowl beat butter for 30 seconds on med-high speed. Add powdered sugar and salt beating until combined (scrape sides of bowl). Beat in the cherry liquid and almond extract. Beat in as much flour as you can then use a spoon to mix any remaining flour and the chopped cherries.
- Roll dough into 1 inch balls and place on ungreased cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Using the bottom of a glass dipped in granulated sugar, flatten the balls until they are about 1/2 inch thick. Bake 14 minutes or until bottoms are light brown. Right away place a chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie then transfer to a wire rack to cool.
Tips:
- Properly softened butter: Using butter that is too cold or too warm can result in cookies that spread too much or don't hold their shape. For the best results, soften the butter to room temperature before creaming it with the sugar.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing can develop the gluten in the flour, resulting in tough, dry cookies. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough helps to firm it up and prevent it from spreading too much in the oven. This will result in thicker, chewier cookies.
- Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The ideal baking temperature for these cookies is 350°F (175°C). Baking them at a higher temperature will cause them to brown too quickly and become dry.
- Don't overbake the cookies: Overbaking can also result in dry, crumbly cookies. Bake the cookies just until the edges just begin to brown and the centers are still slightly soft.
- Let the cookies cool completely before storing: This will help them to set and keep their shape.
Conclusion:
With their combination of sweet cherries, rich chocolate, and a hint of almond flavor, these Cherry Chocolate Kiss Cookies are a delightful treat that is perfect for Valentine's Day or any other special occasion. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you serve them at a party or simply enjoy them as a snack, these cookies are sure to be a hit.
