These Strawberry Kiss Cookies are soft, buttery, and bursting with sweet strawberry flavor! Topped with a chocolate kiss, they make the perfect treat for Valentine’s Day, holiday cookie exchanges, or any time you want a fun and fruity twist on classic blossom cookies.
Ingredients 🛒
For the Cookie Dough:
1 cup unsalted butter, softened (for a rich, buttery base)
1 cup granulated sugar (adds sweetness and slight crispness)
1 large egg, at room temperature (helps with structure and texture)
1 tsp vanilla extract (enhances the flavor)
½ tsp almond extract (optional) (adds a hint of nuttiness)
2 cups all-purpose flour (for the perfect soft and tender texture)
½ tsp baking powder (helps the cookies rise slightly)
½ tsp salt (balances the sweetness)
3 tbsp strawberry gelatin (Jell-O mix) (adds strawberry flavor and a pop of pink color!)
For Rolling & Topping:
¼ cup granulated sugar (for rolling the dough balls before baking)
24 chocolate kisses, unwrapped (Hershey’s Kisses work great!)
