Ingredients
- 1 box strawberry cake mix
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- 2 eggs
- 1 tablespoon milk
- Granulated sugar for rolling
- Hershey Kisses unwrapped
Instructions
Make the Dough:
- In a large bowl, mix together the vegetable oil and eggs until well combined. Gradually add in the flour and strawberry cake mix. Stir in the milk and mix just until a dough forms.
Shape and Chill:
- Using a #30 cookie scoop or about 2 tablespoons per cookie, scoop the dough into balls. Roll each ball in granulated sugar. Cover and chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
Bake:
- Preheat oven to 375ºF. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper. Bake cookies one sheet at a time for 8–10 minutes. Keep the remaining dough chilled between batches.
Add the Kisses:
- Immediately after baking, gently press a Hershey Kiss into the center of each warm cookie. Allow the cookies to cool completely before transferring or storing.
Notes
Chilling the dough helps reduce spreading and keeps the cookies soft and thick.
You can use any variety of Hershey Kisses to change up the flavor—white chocolate, Hugs, or dark chocolate all work well.
