I followed the directions but the kisses melted while the cookies were on the cooling racks. The kisses melted down the side of the cookies and onto the counter. Even the baked cookie did not taste good.

Not a big mint fan so I replaced the Mint Kisses with Milk Chocolate and they were great and even better when I tried a few with the Cherry Cordial Kisses. This is our third Christmas making them.

Featured Tip

HERSHEY'S Cocoa keeps very well when stored at room temperature in the original container. It retains its freshness and quality without refrigeration. When storing HERSHEY'S Cocoa, avoid contact with moisture and/or high heat. Both can cause clumping and gray discoloration, although neither affect cocoa flavor or quality.
