I love this recipe. It is so easy and simple to make. Can't keep them around for long. My husband eats them the minute I take them out of the oven.

Just made these & they are absolutely delicious & so very easy to make. I had problems with the kisses melting & found that sticking them in the freezer for a few minutes helped the most for me. They really held their shape after that.

this receipe came in so handy at Christmas time. So much easier to make then my own receipe for decorated sugar cookies. Went over so great with family and friends.

Very easy and festive, my 5yr old granddaughter had a wonderful time helping. Wish I had known to cool the cookies a few extra minutes before adding the Hershey Kisses and placing in the fridge, first batch looked more like buttons, otherwise a great recipe.

I mixed a little green sugar with the granulated sugar to roll the cookies in...really pretty red and green cookies!
