Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter (no substitutes), softened
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup finely chopped walnuts
  • 1 (8 ounce) package milk chocolate kisses

  • 2 tablespoons baking cocoa

Directions

  1. In a mixing bowl, cream butter, sugar and vanilla. Gradually add flour. Fold in walnuts. Refrigerate dough for 2-3 hour or until firm. Shape into 1-in. balls. Flatten balls and place a chocolate kiss in the center of each; pinch dough together around kiss. Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 375 degrees F for 12 minutes or until set but not browned. Cool for 1 minute; remove from pans to wire racks. Sift 2/3 cup confectioners' sugar and cocoa.
