Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ounce (2 tablespoons) red food coloring
  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • About 48 Hershey’s Kisses, unwrapped

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract. Make sure everything is well combined.
  • Add the red food coloring and cocoa powder to the butter mixture and beat until evenly colored.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!
  • Cover the dough and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  • Roll the chilled dough into 1-inch balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still slightly soft.
  • Remove the cookies from the oven and immediately press a Hershey’s Kiss into the center of each cookie.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
