Cookies are VERY good, I made them today for the holidays. I made some with Hershey's Hugs and some with the new Hershey's Candy Cane Kisses. The Candy Cane Kisses added a peppermint taste and look very festive. Candy Cane Kisses are seasonal, I'll make the Hugs year round :) YUM!

Very simple recipe and great the first day. By the second day they were as tough as hockey pucks even though they were stored in an air-tight container.

These were simply delicious and very easy too. I made them for our church’s New Year service and everybody seemed to enjoy them. Baked them at 350 F for 8-10 minutes, dusting with a pinch of the powdered sugar once cool (although this wasn’t really needed as they were sweet enough, but it looked pretty). Thanks for sharing :)

This is a really easy recipe, and I, like Jim, baked at 350 and they are sinfully good. My photo is not all that great, hopefully someone with better photographic abilities will come along and post a better one, cuz they're really cute!
