Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
  • 1 cup brown sugar, lightly packed (105g)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar (200g)
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons mint extract
  • green food coloring (optional)
  • 3 cups all purpose flour (375g)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 36 Hershey Kisses (approx. 150g)

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and line 3 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars together with an electric mixer until fluffy.
  • Add eggs, mint extract and food coloring if desired and beat until combined.
  • Add flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda and beat on low speed until combined.
  • Roll into 1-1.5" balls and place on prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Bake for 8-9 minutes just until centers are no longer glossy -- you don't want them to brown on top.
  • Let cool on pans for 5 minutes, until warm but not hot. Place one kiss in the center of each cookie, pressing down slightly to secure -- they will crack just a bit (they will crack more if they are overbaked and browned).
  • Let cool completely before moving to a storage container.
