INGREDIENTS

- Servings: 4-5 dz
- Preparation Time: 30
- 1 (1 pound 1.5 ounce) pouch Betty Crocker sugar cookie mix
- 1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup unsweetened baking cocoa
- 1/2 cup finely chopped pecans
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 60 Hershey Kisses milk chocolates, unwrapped
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
DIRECTIONS
- Heat oven to 375 degrees.
- In large bowl, stir cookie mix, butter, egg, flour, cocoa, almonds and extract until soft dough forms.
- Shape dough into sixty 3/4" balls; wrap each around 1 chocolate. Place 2" apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
- (I find it easier to sink the chocolate in, and pinch around the outside to hold it up)
- Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until set. Immediately remove from cookie sheet. Cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
- Roll cookies in powered sugar. Cool completely, about 15 minutes. Roll cookies in powdered sugar. Store tightly covered.
