Yield 60

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 ½ cups butter, softened
¾ cup white sugar
1 tablespoon lemon extract
2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups chopped almonds
60 milk chocolate candy kisses, unwrapped
⅓ cup confectioners' sugar for decoration
3 (1 ounce) squares bittersweet chocolate
2 teaspoons vegetable oil

Steps:

  • In large bowl, beat butter, 3/4 cup sugar and lemon extract until light and fluffy. Add flour and almonds; beat at low speed until well blended. Cover; refrigerate at least 1 hour for easier handling.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Shape scant tablespoons dough around each kiss, covering completely. Roll in hands to form ball. Place on ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 8-12 minutes until set and bottom edges are light golden brown. Cool 1 minute; remove to rack and cool completely. Sprinkle cookies with confectioners' sugar.
  • In small pan, melt chocolate squares and stir in oil until smooth. Drizzle over each cookie.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cookies turned out flat and dry. I'm going to try making them again, but I'll be sure to follow the recipe more carefully this time.

I had a hard time finding lemon extract at the store, but I'm so glad I did. It really makes these cookies special.

These cookies were a bit too tart for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. I might try adding a little less lemon zest next time.

I'm not a big fan of lemon, but these cookies were surprisingly good! The lemon flavor is subtle and not overpowering.
