We enjoyed making and eating these! The girls were a great help unwrappingthe Hershey Caramel Kisses and hiding them in the cookie balls.
Ingredients
1 cup shortening
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 cups packed brown sugar
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
1-1/2 teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract
4-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1-1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 packages (13.3 ounces each) fun-size Milky Way candy bar (We used Hershey caramel Kisses)
Optional coating (We wanted them to have a more "crinkle" look)
Sifted confectioners sugar
Cinnamon
Unsweetened cocoa powder
Directions:
In a large bowl, cream the shortening, butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt; gradually add to the creamed mixture and mix well.
Roll into 1-1/2-in. balls. Cut each candy bar into fourths; push one portion into the center of each ball, completely covering candy with dough.
Optional: Roll the balls in sugar, cinnamon, cocoa miniature. This gave them a more marbles crinkle look. They tasted a bit like Mexican Hot coco mix. Yummy!! We will surely make again!
Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets.
Bake at 350° for 12-14 minutes or until golden brown and surface cracks. Remove to wire racks to cool.
Makes about 9 dozen.
