Candy Cane Kiss Cookies


Sometimes the things you don't plan for turn out to be the best, like these cookies!  My husband had a holiday party at work and he offered to bring in dessert.  My first choice dessert was a complete fail so I had to come up with a plan B and quick. It was the night before and when I say night I mean like an hour before midnight!!  I really wanted to use the Hershey kiss candy cane chocolates that I had a bag of and after found this recipe from Gonna Want Seconds  I had my Plan B and was ready to go! Click on the link for the full recipe.

The dough was perfect to work with and I loved rolling the dough into the red and green sugar.  I also rolled the dough into both sugars which gave the cookie a more colorful look.

The red and green decorative sugar along with the candy cane chocolate kiss give this cookie a festive and fun look for holiday parties and cookie exchanges.  And, if you like peppermint then this cookie is an overall winner!
