HIdden Treasure Cookies


Back in June we were at my Brother and Sister-in-law's house for my Brother's 30th birthday. My sister-in-law, Adrienne, made the BEST cookies! They were so good.

Light, flaky, cookie dough, surrounding a smooth as silk Hershey Kiss, and lightly dusted with powdered sugar and cocoa powder. They were melt in your mouth amazing.

She shared her recipe with me, and I ended up making a few changes to it. The original recipe called for cinnamon in the cookie dough, which some people really like, but not me. Don't get me wrong, I love cinnamon. . .just not with my chocolate. Also, I subbed Rolo's for the Hershey Kiss. I'm sure I'll make it with a Kiss at some point, but my husband is a huge fan of the classic Choco-Caramel mixture.

So here you go. . .make 'em, or change it up and make it yours!
