Time 1h10m

Yield 48 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/3 cup butter or 1/3 cup margarine, softened
3 ounces cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg yolk
2 teaspoons almond extract
2 teaspoons orange juice
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
5 cups sweetened flaked coconut, divided
1 (10 ounce) bag Hershey chocolate kisses

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, beat the butter, cream cheese and sugar.
  • Blend well, then add egg yolk, almond extract and orange juice; beat mixture well.
  • Stir together the flour, baking powder and salt.
  • Gradually add to the butter mixture and beat until well blended.
  • Stir in 3 cups of the coconut; cover mixture and chill for 1 hour, or until firm to handle.
  • Unwrap the kisses while chilling and heat oven to 350°.
  • Form dough into 1-inch balls; roll them in remaining coconut.
  • Place them on a ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 10-12 minutes until lightly browned.
  • Remove from the oven and quickly press a kiss into each center.
  • Let cool 1 minute, then transfer to wire rack to cool completely.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The type of chocolate you use will greatly affect the taste of your macaroons. Choose a chocolate that is at least 70% cacao and has a smooth, rich flavor.
  • Don't overbeat the egg whites: Overbeaten egg whites will make your macaroons tough and dry. Beat them until they are stiff peaks but not dry.
  • Let the macaroons rest before baking: This will help them to develop their signature chewy texture.
  • Bake the macaroons at a low temperature: This will help them to cook through without burning.
  • Store the macaroons in an airtight container at room temperature: They will keep for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Homemade macaroon kisses are a delicious and elegant treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized with your favorite flavors. With a little practice, you'll be able to make perfect macaroons every time.
