Hershey KISSES Candy Cane Blossoms – Cookie Recipe!

I was recently able to have Linda Stahl from Hershey answer some great cookie related questions and she graciously

1. What are your favorite cookies to include Christmas Cookie Exchanges?
2. What is your favorite Hershey’s Kiss flavor?
3. How many flavors are there now?
4. What recipe would make a great holiday drink using hershey’s products this season that is more then just hot chocolate? Any adult versions?
5. Why do you love Hershey’s?

From that interview I saw the KISSES Candy Cane Blossoms and knew immediately I wanted to give them a try. It actually made me start peeking around the Hershey’s  website and realized they have tons of great recipes. Many of which I really want to try. I have recently been introduced to the cookie press and found a great Chocolate Spritz Cookies recipe that I want to give a try soon!

Ingredients:

• 48 HERSHEY’S KISSES Brand Candy Cane Mint Candies
• 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter or margarine, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 egg
• 1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons milk
• Red or green sugar crystals, granulated sugar or powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

First you going to have to start out with HERSHEY’S KISSES Brand Candy Cane Mint Candies. I found mine at Walmart so they seem pretty easy to find this time of year.

Next take your dough and roll it around in some red and green sugars.

Make sure they are fully covered.

Next lay them out on your cookie sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes.

When done let them cool for a moment and then add the kisses. I found if you add them too soon the kisses will melt. But don’t let them cool too much or they won’t attach.

Don’t they look yummy?
