  • “Wonderful!!I used a stick of butter flavor crisco in place of the butter and they turned out great!”

  • “These are wonderful cookies.I used margarine instead of butter, because I was trying to cut down the cost.I enjoyed them and so did every neighbor who got them on their Christmas Plate this year.Thanks for an easy recipe!”

  • “These turned out great! I used the recipe for Christmas cookies and got plenty to go around for all. I rolled the balls in sugar in the raw before adding the kiss, for a extra holiday touch. “

  • “Yummy!A nice change to the regular kiss cookies!Thanks for posting the recipe!”

  • “I followed the recipe exactly and they came out delicious!! One batch made 136 cookies! I rolled them into 1-inch balls and they turned out to be the perfect size. I ran out of Hershey kisses to press into them between the 6th and 7th dozen, so I dumped about 2/3 a bag of Hershey’s semi-sweet chocolate morsels into the remaining batter and made peanut butter chocolate chip cookies. These were ALSO delicious. :o)”

  • “I noticed that sugar is listed in the bottom as an ingredient, I assumed that meant I was to roll the ball in sugar before cooking them. I ended up adding at least 1/4 cup more flour so they didn’t spread out so much. I think these are one of those cookies that is so much better a day or two later, I can’t wait to try some tomorrow.”

  • “Awsome cookies! Perfect! Thanks so much for posting! Better than the hershey website cookies!!!!! Thanks its a keeper!”

  • “I am just learning to bake, but this recipe was easy to make and they are so tasty!!! Thank you :)”

  • “For some reason these cookies were very thin.I followed the recipe to a “t”-to much baking soda maybe?After the first 2 trays I ended up just making the rest into plain cookies (no hershey kisses) as my kids liked just the dough.”

  • “Amazing cookies! I just made these the other night and they were wonderful. I was only able to get 5 dozen out of the dough, but I make bigger cookies and my kids really enjoyed some cookie dough! I did some with kisses and some without. The ones I did not put kisses on I only baked 8 mins and a few days later they are still soft and chewy!”

  • “I personally don’t like peanut butter but that’s not the case for the rest of the household as the platter seemed to empty magically. I happened to have different kinds of kisses so I used some of each and every cookie was a surprise. This recipe is a great base for making just plain PB or PB chip cookies or whatever. The only difference I found is I didn’t end up with 8 dozen even though I tried to make them small which I’m not very good at. Thanks for the great recipe!”

  • “These are awesome!Moist and the chocolate kiss stays soft after baking.Oh YUM!I will be saving this recipe for future use. Thanks for the great recipe.”

  • “My son found this recipe, & has been making them often; these cookies are addictive. This recipe is definitely a keeper…thanks for posting”

  • “This is very similar to the recipe I use, but I replace the Chocolate kisses with Dove chocolate hearts.They are perfect to make around Valentine’s Day!”

  • “I made these for my cookie trays and they are delicious!I love the addition of the kiss with the peanut butter. They will be devoured by the whole family!Thank you for sharing it with us MizzNezz! Linda”

  • “I make these every year for Christmas and everyone loves them!”

  • “This is such a pretty little cookie!Since there are a few similar recipes posted I wasn’t sure which one to try, but I am glad I chose this one.I switched the amounts for the butter and peanut butter since we love peanut butter.They turned out marvelous. I like that this recipe makes so many cookies.I used chocolate rosettes in place of the Hershey kisses and when I ran out of them, I simply mixed chocolate chips into the remaining batter. Thx MizzNezz.”

  • “This is definitely a cookie to die for. Yum. They were so moist and chewy that after eating one, out popped one of my caps. They were loved by all. Thanks MizzNezz!!”

  • “Yummy!!I halved the recipe and got 42 cookies, but next time I will definitely make the balls a little smaller, as some of them were a little big.I rolled the balls in sugar before baking and also baked for 9 minutes, then pressed the kisses into the hot cookies and let them cool. Kids loved helping with these ones. Exactly how I remember them 🙂 Thanks MizzNezz!!”

  • “I just made these and they were wonderful.I used hugs instead of kisses and found that if you bake for 10mins then press the hugs in they maintain their shape much better.Two thumbs up!!!”
