I've been making these for years now, and they are always a hit with everyone (ESPECIALLY the chocoholics!)!

Categories     Cookies

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 c butter or margarine softened
2/3 c sugar
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
1 2/3 c all-purpose flour
1/4 c hershey's cocoa
1 c finely chopped pecans
9 oz hershey's kisses chocolates

Steps:

  • 1. In large bowl, beat butter, sugar and vanilla until creamy. Stir together flour and cocoa; add in butter mixture, beating until blended.
  • 2. Add pecans; beat until well blended. Refrigerate dough about 1 hour or until firm enough to handle. Heat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • 3. Remove wrappers from chocolate pieces. Mold scant tablespoon of dough around each chocolate piece, covering completely. Shape into balls.
  • 4. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until set. Cool slightly, about 1 minute; remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely.
  • 5. Roll in powdered sugar. Roll in sugar again before serving, if desired. About 4-1/2 dozen cookies. Serve 8 persons.

Tips:

  • Chill the dough: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking helps the cookies hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much.
  • Use a cookie scoop: A cookie scoop helps ensure that all of the cookies are the same size and shape, which will help them bake evenly.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough can make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The ideal baking temperature for cocoa kiss cookies is 350 degrees Fahrenheit. If the oven is too hot, the cookies will brown too quickly and the centers will be undercooked. If the oven is too cool, the cookies will take too long to bake and they will be dry.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting set properly and prevent it from melting.

Conclusion:

Cocoa kiss cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with simple ingredients that are probably already in your kitchen, and they can be decorated with a variety of toppings, such as sprinkles, chocolate chips, or nuts. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give cocoa kiss cookies a try!
