CHERRY CHOCOLATE KISS COOKIES - VALENTINE KISSES
These cookies are similar to Peanut Butter Blossoms, but are cherry cookies instead of peanut butter. I like to make them for Valentine's Day-- and call them Valentine Kisses. There are many variations-- you can use make the dough and use white or semi-sweet chocolate chips or use mini-kisses for smaller bite size cookies. The dough can be rolled in plain sugar, or red decorator sugar for an extra festive look.

Steps:
- Beat butter, add sugar and salt. Beat in cherry liquid and almond extract. Beat in flour. Fold in cherries.
- Refrigerate dough for at least 30 minutes (you don't have to, but dough is easier to work with when cold).
- Roll dough into balls, coat in sugar and place on cookie sheet. These cookies will flatten on their own, but I typically put a thumb print in the center to flatten some.
- Bake at 325 degrees for 14 minutes. Let cool on pan for 1-2 minutes.
- Add Hershey Kiss/Hug to center of the cookies. (Hugs melt especially fast, you may want to let the cookies cool a little longer before adding Hugs, but cookies should still be warm so chocolate can melt into the cookie).
- Transfer to wire rack to cool.
Tips:
- Use high-quality chocolate: The chocolate is the star of these cookies, so it's important to use a good quality chocolate that you enjoy the taste of. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate will work well.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough helps to firm it up and make it easier to handle. It also helps the cookies to hold their shape better in the oven.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough can make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
- Press the cookies down with a fork: Pressing the cookies down with a fork creates a criss-cross pattern on the top of the cookies. This helps the cookies to bake evenly and also gives them a nice texture.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set: The cookies should be baked until they are just set in the center. Overbaking the cookies will make them dry and crumbly.
Conclusion:
These chocolate cherry kiss cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
