How to Make Magical Mint Kiss Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour and ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently press a single chocolate mint kiss into the center of a scant tablespoon of cookie dough, completely covering the kiss.
- Roll the dough into a ball.
- Place the cookie balls about 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set. The centers may still appear slightly soft.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once completely cool, roll the cookies in powdered sugar.
