Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup light brown sugar (packed)
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 18 Hershey's Kisses (unwrapped)
• 0.5 cup powdered sugar

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder until evenly combined. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream the butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.

Step 4

Beat in the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated.

Step 5

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

Step 6

Place the powdered sugar in a shallow bowl. Using a small cookie scoop or a tablespoon, scoop dough and roll it into balls approximately 1 inch in diameter.

Step 7

Roll each dough ball in the powdered sugar until evenly coated, then place them onto the prepared baking sheets, spaced about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies have spread slightly and the tops have cracked.

Step 9

Remove the baking sheets from the oven and immediately press one unwrapped Hershey's Kiss into the center of each cookie. The heat from the cookie will slightly soften the chocolate, but it will firm up as the cookies cool.

Step 10

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

Step 11

Serve and enjoy these rich, chocolatey treats!
