Directions
OPTIONS FOR CHOCOLATE KISSES: 1. If you like caramel centers, take 3oz of
Kraft
Caramels and add 1TB of water, heat until melted.
Pour onto a plate so the mix will make a thin, 1/4"
layer, place in FREEZER until it is hard. Then,
when dough is ready, remove the hardened caramel
from the freezer, cut small strips 1/2" wide of the
caramel. Cut these into 1/2" bits, place in center
of cookie dough and roll make certain dough
completely surrounds the caramel. It will run out
if not completely enclosed. Still good eatin',
just not as pretty. 3 oz will do two recipes
probably. 2. Get bite size Reese Peanut Butter Cups, cut into 2
pieces, and do same as above. 3. In place of (2), use crunchy peanut
butter, using
the BACK of a 1/4 t to touch into the peanut butter
and get a dab to place on the cookie dough before
rolling. Back of spoon allows peanut butter to be
wiped onto the dough. Using inside spoon did not
work for me. Hard to get out. Try it yourself.
Peanut butter has stronger flavor than the Reeses
Cups, so only a dab is needed. 4. I like mint chocolate. Found some
Mintohs at
Kroger. These are for candy making, baking, etc.,
Light mint flavor. Size of a quarter. Place one
of these in the dough in place of other options. I
tried the chocolate covered peppermint candy that
is foil wrapped. It was TOO strong a mint.
Overpowering. But that is my taste. Heat oven to 350. In medium
sauacepan, combine chocolate chips & butter, cooking & stirring over very
low heat until chips are melted & smooth. Add sweetened condensed milk &
mix well.
Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup & level off. Combine flour & nuts
~if using- in medium mixing bowl, add chocolate mixture and vanilla and mix
well. Shape 1 scant TB of dough around each candy kiss, covering
completely. Place on ungreased cookie sheet, 1" apart. Bake 6 to 8
minutes. SEE NOTE 2 jgb

The remainder of the recipe directions was to remove the cookies, even
though then appear to be soft and glisten. They will hrden. When cool, heat
vanilla flavored candy coating and the oil, drizzle over cookies. This is
the Pillsbury cookoff winner, and I posted it before. The options I have
played with. They work. Good fun to all. Jerry G. Brewster, MPHS, TN

Dee I have 7 recipes to post for you. The first 3 are sugar cookies.
Important to remember is to follow instructions exactly and if the recipe
calls for chilling the dough be sure to do that.
