Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup mini chocolate chips
- 24 pieces Hershey's Kisses
- 0.5 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and powdered sugar using a hand mixer or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 3
Add in the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
Step 4
Gradually add the all-purpose flour to the butter mixture, mixing until a soft dough forms. Stir in the mini chocolate chips by hand to evenly distribute.
Step 5
Unwrap all the Hershey's Kisses and set them aside.
Step 6
Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough, flatten it slightly in your hand, and place a Hershey's Kiss in the center. Wrap the dough around the Kiss, completely covering it, and roll into a ball.
Step 7
Place the dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies are set but not browned. The bottoms should be lightly golden.
Step 9
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
Step 10
Once the cookies are completely cooled, roll them in powdered sugar to coat generously.
Step 11
Serve and enjoy, or store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
