Ingredients
  

Cookie Dough
  • 1 box (15.25 oz) strawberry cake mix any brand
  • 2 large eggs
  • 0.33 cup vegetable oil or melted butter
Assembly
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar for rolling
  • 24 Hershey's Kisses unwrapped

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Mixing bowl
  • Cookie scoop

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix together the dry cake mix, eggs, and oil until a thick dough forms.
  3. Place the granulated sugar in a small shallow bowl.
  4. Scoop dough into 1-inch balls. Roll each ball in the sugar until fully coated.
  5. Place dough balls on the baking sheet, 2 inches apart.
  6. Bake for 8-10 minutes. The edges should be set but centers slightly soft.
  7. Remove from oven and immediately press a chocolate kiss into the center of each cookie.
  8. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to set completely.

Notes

Chill the dough for 15 minutes before rolling if it is too sticky to handle.
