How to Make Cherry Cordial Kiss Cookies
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter for 30 seconds on medium-high speed using an electric mixer.
- Add 3 cups powdered sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Beat until well combined and fluffy.
- Beat in 1/4 cup cherry juice from the Hershey's Kisses and 1 teaspoon almond extract. Mix until incorporated.
- Gradually add 4 cups all-purpose flour, beating until the dough just comes together. Stir in 1 cup chopped maraschino cherries using a spoon or spatula until evenly distributed. Do not overmix.
- Roll dough into 1-inch balls. Place onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
- Using the bottom of a glass dipped in granulated sugar, gently flatten each ball to about 1/2-inch thickness.
- Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Keep a close eye to avoid over-browning.
- Immediately after removing from the oven, press one Hershey's Cherry Cordial Kiss into the center of each warm cookie.
- Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
