Pink Strawberry Kiss Treats (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Wet Mix
01 -
1 cup room temp butter, without salt (226g)
02 -
1 cup white sugar (200g)
03 -
1 big egg, not cold
04 -
1 teaspoon pure vanilla
05 -
1/2 teaspoon almond flavor (skip if you want, but it makes strawberry taste better!)
→ Dry Mix
06 -
2 cups regular flour (250g)
07 -
1 teaspoon baking powder
08 -
1/4 teaspoon salt
09 -
1 box (3 oz) strawberry jello powder
→ Toppings
10 -
24-30 chocolate kisses, papers removed
11 -
1/4 cup confectioners sugar for sprinkling
# Instructions:
01 -
Mix butter and sugar in a large bowl until it gets fluffy, roughly 2-3 minutes. Add your egg and flavor stuff until everything's blended nicely.
02 -
Toss in the strawberry jello and keep mixing until your dough turns a nice shade of pink.
03 -
In another bowl, mix up flour, baking powder, and salt. Slowly add this to your pink stuff until you end up with a soft pink dough.
04 -
Take spoonfuls of dough, roll them into balls and put them on baking sheets with parchment. Make a dent in each one for the chocolate later!
05 -
Stick them in a 350°F oven for about 10-12 minutes until they're done but still soft. Let them sit on the pan for a few minutes after.
06 -
While they're still warm, push a chocolate kiss into each dent. Then move them to a wire rack to cool all the way.
07 -
After they're totally cool and the chocolate's hardened, sprinkle some powdered sugar on top to make them look fancy!

Everything works better when your stuff isn't cold from the fridge
