Holiday Blossom Cookies
These fun and festive holiday blossom cookies are a thick, buttery cookie base topped with a delicious hershey's kiss.
Ingredients
- ¾ cup Butter unsalted + softened
- 1 cup Sugar
- ½ cup Brown sugar
- 2 Eggs
- 2 teaspoon Vanilla
- 3 cup Flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- Food coloring red + green
- Holiday sprinkles
- Hershey's Kisses
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a couple cookie sheets with parchment and set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the softened butter, sugar and brown sugar. Cream until smooth.
- Add in the eggs and vanilla, mix well.
- Add in the flour, baking soda and salt and mix thoroughly, scraping the sides and mixing well again
- Divide the dough between three bowls. Tint one bowl green, another red and keep the remaining bowl white (to be rolled in the sprinkles).
- Measure out about a tablespoon or small ice cream scoop worth of dough and roll into a ball.
- Green and red can be directly placed on the prepared parchment, about two inches apart.
- The untinted dough should be rolled into the sprinkles of your choice - pressing slightly to secure them in place.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or just until the edges are slightly browned and the center is set.
- Immediately top with a Hershey’s Kiss so that it melts slightly and secures it to the cookie.
- Allow to cool.
Notes
Tips + Storage
- Don't overmix the dough - this can lead to flat, crunchy cookies.
- Don't overbake cookies - they will continue to cook and set as they cool on the baking sheet. Once edges are lightly browned they can be removed from the oven.
- Add the Hershey's Kiss on top while cookies are still warm to allow it to slightly melt and "glue" itself to the top of the cookie.
- Cookies can be stored in an airtight container for 3 - 5 days or frozen up to a year.
