On the seventh day of Cookiemas, we brought out Aubrey’s favorite recipe Super Duper Chocolate Kisses. These cookies are super-simple to make. They also contain Aubrey’s two favorite ingredients – chocolate sprinkles and Hershey kisses.
-
- Aubrey kneading the dough
-
- Rolling in Sprinkles
A good tip for any Hershey kiss cookie – instead of placing the kiss into the cookie after baking, add the kiss for the last minute of baking. This softens the kiss so it is not as hard to eat.

Super Duper Chocolate Kisses – yields about 40 cookies
1 16 ½ oz package refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough
1/3 unsweetened cocoa powder
2/3 c chocolate sprinkles
2 Tbs milk
40 Hershey kisses, unwrapped
Preheat oven to 375º.
In a large resealable plastic bag, combine cookie dough and cocoa powder. Seal bag; knead dough with your hands until it is mixed well. Remove dough from bag
Place chocolate sprinkles in a shallow dish or small bowl. Place milk in another small bowl. Shape dough into 1” balls. Roll balls first in the milk and then in the chocolate sprinkles. Place balls 2” apart on a cookie sheet.
Bake for 7 minutes. Press a chocolate kiss into the center of each kiss and then return the cookies to the oven for 1 more minute or until cookie edges are firm. Transfer cookies to wire rack to cool.
