Preparation
Step 1
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In another medium bowl, place the chocolate hazelnut spread, butter, and both
sugars. Using a hand mixer, cream the ingredients together, about 3 minutes. Add
the
egg and vanilla and blend until incorporated. Stir in the dry ingredients, just
until incorporated.
Shape the cookie dough into walnut-sized balls. Rolls the balls in the orange
sprinkles or orange sugar, pressing to adhere. Place the cookies on a heavy
cookie sheet about 4 inches apart. Bake for 8 minutes. Remove the cookies from
the oven. Quickly place a chocolate kiss in the middle of each cookie. Return
the cookies to the oven and bake for another 3 minutes. Cool the cookies on a
wire rack.
