We have a recipe in my family that we call Kiss Cookies. They are SO scrumptious and are always the first to go at any family party or gathering. The only problem is, I hardly ever have Hershey Kisses on hand.
Well, I think I may have just come up with a solution. They are still just as tasty, a bit more cost-effective, and so dang cute--MINI KISS COOKIES.
What you will need: flour, salt, baking soda, margarine, peanut butter, 1 egg, vanilla, brown sugar, white sugar, and chocolate chips (Complete recipe is at the end of this post)
Stir 1 3/4 cup flour, 1 tsp. baking soda, and 1/2 tsp. salt together and set aside.
Cream 1/2 cup margarine and 1/2 cup peanut butter together.
Then gradually add 1/2 cup white sugar and 1/2 cup brown sugar. When all of that is well blended, add the egg and 1/2 tsp vanilla.
Then add flour mixture.
Roll into balls. For mini cookies, use 1/4 tsp. of dough for each ball.
Then roll each ball of dough into sugar.
And place on cookie sheet. Bake at 375 for 5-7 minutes, depending on how soft you like your cookies.
As soon as you take the cookies out of the oven, take a chocolate chip and place it in the middle of the cookie.
Let the cookies cool and you have yourself mini Kiss Cookies. Of course, you can make regular ones with Kisses.
Serve them on a platter or wrap them up for a Valentine's gift.
