Secret Kiss Cookies


Another classic recipe from our Christmas cookie baskets. One year we found unwrapped Hershey Kisses pre-packaged for baking. That was the only time we have seen it. Ever since we go on a hunt to find those again, but the outcome is the same. We stay up till midnight unwrapping hershey kisses. :-)
