Equipment

  • small bowl
  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • electric mixer - hand mixer or stand mixer
  • cookie sheets or baking sheets
  • Parchment Paper
  • Cookie Scoop

Ingredients

  • 2 cups flour
  • ⅔ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter room temperature
  • 1 cup sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 36 Hershey’s Kisses milk chocolate candies unwrapped
  • Assorted sprinkles if desired

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • Beat the butter and medium speed for 5 minutes. Scrape down the sides. Add the sugars and continue beating for 5 to 7 minutes or until fluffy.
  • Mix in the vanilla and eggs until combined.
  • Add the flour mixture and beat until mixed.
  • Using a small (1 tablespoon) cookie scoop, portion the cookie dough and shape into balls. Place on the baking sheet about 1 inch apart.
  • Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until the cookies are puffed and the edges are set.
  • After removing the cookies from the oven, press one kiss into the center of each cookie.
  • Transfer to a wire rack and allow the cookies to cool completely. The candies will look like they are melting but do not disturb them and they will resolidify in the correct shape.

Notes

  • Make sure that the ingredients are at room temperature before starting.
  • Use fresh baking soda for best results.
  • If you decide to roll in either sprinkles or sugar depending on your preference, do so before you bake them.
