Hidden Kisses image

Another wonderful sounding recipe found in the Toronto Star Newspaper. It would be a fun project to do with your children as a wonderful Valentine treat or just for a sweet surprise for someone you love. The paper's article it says the story and recipe are by Chef Bill Lombardo and Catherine McNeil. After reading the first two reviews I've adjusted the water from 4 tsp to 4-5 tsp. Note: The cooking time includes the 45 minute refrigeration time.

  • Place the dough-covered kisses 1 inch apart on an ungreased baking sheet.
  • When the oven is ready, bake the cookies for 10 to 11 minutes until golden brown.
