48 Hershey's Kisses Brand Candy Cane Mint Candies
1 stick butter, softened (1/2 cup)
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 eggs
1 Tbsp milk
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup cocoa
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup mini chocolate chips
1/4 cup white sanding sugar
Yield: About 48 cookies
Preheat oven: 350° F.
Prepare the baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper.
Remove the wrappers from the Candy Cane Mint Candies. Place the candies in a bowl and set aside.
Place the butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla in the mixing bowl and beat well. Add the eggs and milk and beat well.
Stir together the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Add the flour mixture gradually to the butter mixture. Beat until well blended. Stir in the mini chocolate chips.
Shape the dough into 1-inch balls. Roll the balls in the sanding sugar. Place the balls on the parchment lined baking sheets.
Bake the sheet for 10 to 11 minutes or until set. Remove from the oven and gently press the candy cane mint kiss in the center of each cookie. Remove the cookies from the baking sheet to a wire rack to cool completely.
