Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons instant coffee granules
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 36 pieces chocolate kisses (unwrapped)
• 0.5 cup powdered sugar (for coating)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes using an electric mixer.

Step 3

Beat in the egg, milk, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, instant coffee granules, baking soda, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until incorporated. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls.

Step 7

Roll each dough ball in powdered sugar until fully coated, then place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are slightly cracked.

Step 9

Remove cookies from the oven and immediately press an unwrapped chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie while they’re still warm.

Step 10

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
