- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 1/3 cup white sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups flour
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips
- 36 Hersey Kisses, unwrapped
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Cream softened butter, brown and white sugars and vanilla extract.
Add flour to the mixture and mix until a dough forms.
Stir in mini chocolate chips.
Take a small amount of dough and wrap around unwrapped Hershey Kiss. It should be a thin layer around the candy.
Roll each cookie into a ball and place on a cookie sheet.
Bake for 10 - 12 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes on the cookie pan before removing to a cooling rack.
- Be sure to use softened butter. If you forget to set out the butter, microwave it for 8 - 10 seconds to barely soften without melting.
- You really need mini chocolate chips for these cookies. The layer of dough around the Shortbread Hershey Kiss Cookies is really thin.
- Unwrap the Hershey Kisses before using...just saying.
- Try switching it up by using different flavors of Hershey Kisses.
- You could totally make this a fun Christmas game with the kids. Make them guess what the "hidden" treasure will be. They will be pleasantly surprised to find the Hidden Hershey Kiss.
