Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 24 pieces Hershey's Kisses, unwrapped
- 0.25 cup powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the vanilla extract and the egg to the bowl, and mix until well combined.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix the dough.
Step 6
Scoop out about 1 tablespoon of dough and flatten it slightly in the palm of your hand.
Step 7
Place a Hershey's Kiss in the center of the dough, then gently wrap the dough around it, sealing it completely and rolling it into a smooth ball.
Step 8
Repeat this process for the remaining dough and Hershey's Kisses, placing the cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the tops are still soft. Avoid overbaking.
Step 10
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 11
If desired, dust the cooled cookies lightly with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
Step 12
Serve and enjoy the delightful surprise of a Hershey's Kiss in every bite!
